The Solar

The solar consisted of private rooms for the lord and his lady, and family. It is thought to have been situated at the north end of the Great Hall.

The buildings in this north east corner of the castle site are all thought to be a bit of a mystery.

Can you spot the arch at basement level?

Is it a dungeon? The bottom of a drawbridge pit for a second gate? Or a pit for a garde-robe (toilet with a wooden seat) built in to a room above?
