Mr Monkey at Blackness Castle


"There's plenty of space to walk"

Mr Monkey saw that he could get to the North Tower by running along the east curtain wall. This was originally far thinner, but after the 1537 modifications was 5 metres thick. This made it very well protected against artillery, but makes it difficult for a young monkey to see over, so Mr Monkey had to study the South and Central Towers.
