St Mawes Castle

Three views of St Mawes Castle, Cornwall. Built by Henry VIII in a trefoil shape - the rounded walls designed to deflect cannon fire. It defended the entrance to Falmouth harbour along with Pendennis Castle on the opposite side of the estuary. (We visited Pendennis a few days earlier)

 

It was such a dull day weather wise - mono worked better for this one, I think.
