Ce château féodal était entouré sur trois côtés par des ravins qui lui tenaient lieu de fossés. Au quatrième côté, vers le couchant, le vieux donjon se rattachait par une croupe étroite au coteau. C'était son entrée principale, défendue par des ponts levis et des tourelles. Du sommet de la grande tour carré, on apercevait le Rhône. On pouvait facilement repéré les signaux envoyés depuis le château de Serves pour signaler d'éventuelles attaques ou l'arrivée de bateaux pour percevoir des droits de péage.
Cela n'empêcha pas le château d'être surpris en 1685 par
l'aventureux capitaine Clavel, chef de partisants huguenots, et
sa bande. Après avoir brûlé l'église de Lemps, il attaqua
l'Iserand. Le château lui aurait été ouvert par trahison par un
des serviteurs. Il fut pillé, livré aux flammes et ses habitants
massacrés.
Depuis, les ruines n'ont pas été relevées. Les villageois du
voisinage n'y aurait pas établi leur demeure car la nuit, on y
entendant, dit on, des rumeurs étranges, et on y apercevait des
fantômes ensanglantés !

With the UK gripped by a national rail strike affecting nearly all train operating companies The Great Western Christmas Envoy was the only train stopping at Bath Spa all day. Steam locomotive 70000 Britannia can be seen here pulling away from Bath Spa heading through Oldfield Park having just crossed back onto the correct line after taking advantage and running bang line through Bath Spa to drop passengers off. We were very lucky a freight train stopped before the station to let us all have a view as the red light meant he should have stopped through the station blocking our view.
Green Heron are beautiful striking birds with velvety green backs, chestnut colored front and often raised green crest gracing the ever green marshes of the state of Florida. The Green Heron is one of the world’s few tool-using bird species. It creates fishing lures with bread crusts, insects, earthworms, twigs, feathers, and other objects, dropping them on the surface of the water to entice small fish. Other birds can just turn green with envoy.
They're here. Their arrival was undetected by our most advanced, sophisticated technology. They just suddenly appeared.
We don't know from where they've come and we don't yet know if they've come in peace, but reflecting on our own long history of exploration we've been unable to find an instance of it ever being of benefit to the natives.
This is worrisome.
We don't wish to alarm you, panic is never productive. We instead encourage you all to...well....be worried.
Be very worried.

To defend the Manor of Headford in what is now County Galway, Ireland from the O’Flaherty raids across Lough Corrib, the De Burgos built two castles, Annaghkeen Castle and Carigin Castle to protect it from attacks across the lake.
Annaghkeen Castle pictured here is remarkable for its construction technique, as it was built entirely from undressed stone, without any mortar or cement. The stones were carefully selected and fitted together to form a solid structure that has survived for almost 700 years. The castle measures about 15 meters by 8 meters, and has walls that are about 1.5 meters thick.
The history of Annaghkeen Castle is intertwined with the history of the De Burgo family and their feud with the O’Flaherty clan. They engaged in constant warfare with their neighbours, especially the O’Flahertys, who refused to acknowledge their authority or pay them rent.
One of the most famous episodes of this feud occurred in the 16th century, when an O’Flaherty chieftain invited a De Burgo envoy to his castle at Aughnanure, near Oughterard, to discuss the rent issue. O’Flaherty treated his guest with great hospitality and invited him to join a banquet. During the feast, however, he pressed a hidden lever that opened a trapdoor under the De Burgo’s seat, sending him plunging into the river below. O’Flaherty then cut off his head and sent it back to his relatives as “O’Flaherty’s rent”.
The feud between the De Burgos and the O’Flaherty’s continued for centuries, until both families were weakened by internal divisions and external pressures. Annaghkeen Castle was eventually abandoned and fell into ruin. In the early 19th century, a new manor house was built nearby by another branch of the De Burgo family, but it was also deserted after the Great Famine of 1845-1849. Today, both buildings stand as silent witnesses of a turbulent past. (Text lifted from the Visit Galway site.)
