Go down to the bottom of the page, enter the castle name in the green "google search" box and click google search. A list of pictures of the castle will appear, but one should say Pictures of ....... Castle. Click on that title and it will take you to a page which offers you "A picture tour of ...... Castle", click on that line. It will then open the pictures, here I would suggest clicking on thumbnails so that you can see all the pictures available. Make your selection, note the picture ID number, click on the picture and make a comment, if you haven't already. Return to this thread and insert the ID number as usual in the Insert box (which you get when you click the green tree icon, third from right in the tool bar below). Sounds complicated, but just take it step by step and you will be surprised how easy it is. Looking forward to seeing stunning photos of fabulous English castles. Alternatively: If you have added a castle picture to your favourites, then you can quickly get the picture ID from there and insert it in the thread. Edited by: cathyml at:24th July 2010 22:05 |

I will have to nominate Arundel Castle and my picture of the Keep although I am somewhat biased. My wife and daughter can trace their ancestral line back to and beyond William d'Aubigny and his wife Adeliza of Louvin( she was the widow of King Henry 1). The picture shows the Keep and this was built by William around 1138 on top of the post conquest motte.  Picture by Vince Hawthorn

(Not anymore!). I forgot to mention that there is of course a Picture tour of Castles on POE which you can look through to find a favourite photo to put in this thread!! |
