Description

This is a watercolour painting over a high-quality copy of an original drawing. An earlier, very similar version of this image was created in December 2011 (see IC087/002/), but it was this later version of the illustration that was reproduced on page 7 of the 2012 English Heritage guidebook for Rochester Castle.
