The following photo was taken in 1904. It is a view from the bridge. The four photos after it are selective zooms I made from the first photo.






The following photo was taken in 1905. Like the ones above, it is a view from the bridge. The four photos after it are selective zooms I made from the first photo. The quality is poor but I wanted to show them anyhow.




Here is a photo of the dining hall. The two after it are zoomed-in shots that I made.

David, you have done a fantastic job with this website and I can't thank you enough for putting it up. And thanks to your great-granddad too. I have known this site for years and just noticed a possible error in the captions for two of the pictures in this Chapter 4. I believe the two that say "[1902] View from the southwest" should instead say "from the northeast." The tower is at the northeast end of the burned castle and its Tremaining foundation, which was quite apparent when is used to be possible to visit the site.
