Dover Castle's 12th Century Norman Keep at Dusk, Kent, UK

A view of Dover Castle's Norman Keep, or Great Tower (night view), taken at dusk on May 23rd, 2007:



Below the Keep are the massive walls of the Inner Bailey, or Inner Curtain Wall.

Above the left-hand side of the Inner Bailey is the square tower of the Saxon St Mary-in-Castro church.

Below the Inner Bailey is the dark embankment of "The Spur" with its Ravelin (Redan).

The road leading to the Bleriot Memorial is on the left.

Note the World War II anti-tank defences known as "Dragon's Teeth" near the signposts at bottom-left.
