A Castle to be Proud of

This fine fort is only seven or eight feet high. Amazingly, it’s not covered in scratches or graffiti or names of lovers. There are a few lines scratched into the plate itself but it just looks like accidental damage. There’s a gravel path around the whole thing that goes around and through its two arches. It looks a bit flooded but that’s just the result of a combination of a very well-used gravel path combined with a wet winter and little drainage of the grassy hill, so it’ll probably dry off with the first sign of warm weather. There are even little alcoves with benches so that people can sit and rest while their friends wander round to explore. At the top, two ramparts roam either side which lead off to two separate towers, and there’s even a step for little ones to climb up and peer over. And the views are amazing.
