About A lonely ruin. I was told that the inverted cross opening was to accommodate a crossbow--only the bolt, that is--to permit some horizontal adjustment in aiming.

I really like the geometry here. Very interesting subject, too. And you already answered my question about the inverted cross! Thanks for your comments.

Failing or falling? Lots of very well defined detail anyway, hope it stays there a while longer!

A beautiful old ruin. Wouldn't you just love to see what too place here many years ago. If you could just see what happened but be able to get back to the present. It was no doubt a very tough life. Thanks for sharing. Don.

I thought you had the dredded tilt disease however this appears to be slowly fading to the left...the openings are very practical for the purpose per your explanation...more nice architecture George
