    I think you mean Muncaster Castle, Mossdog.

    You have reminded me of the Fell Race that finishes on a lawn of the Castle at the top of a very steep grassy bank!
    Visibility good except in Hill Fog

    I do Llani - thanks for keeping me right! Obviously the wrong Munsters https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOajQDtzUiA

    One of the other treats they have there is that in late afternoon, herons regularly come and land in the oaks trees on the slopes near one of those lawns, to be fed fish. Quite a sight to see so many together, up to a dozen of them when I last visited, trying to ungainly balance, flapping their large wings, in the branches and then sneaking along in the long grass, up that steep bank, to nab a fish or two.
