The Castle has fortifications including an outer wall with watchtowers. The Castle sits on a rocky outcrop, a fence runs along the base of the outcrop. A road runs alonside the fence. On the opposite side of the road are another small group of houses. There is a stone wall and a pavement running next to these houses.
