Dalhousie Castle (3)

I didn't do a particularly good job of the photography here, but never mind, the photos show what they need to!

 

So, the wall we are looking at here, the west face of the castle as it stands, was once merely a curtain wall, which means that either none of those windows are original, or they have developed from arrow-slits. It is noticeable that the masonry at the bottom of the walls is old and worn and original, while higher up, the masonry is clearly much more recent. The highest chimney stack, to the right of the flag-pole, while of comparatively recent construction, is set on the old tower-house.
