Caerlaverock Tower & Moat<br> Scenery in Dumfries & Galloway picture - The castle is shaped like a triangular shield, with a strong double tower at one corner where the drawbridge was located. Archaeological excavations in the moat have uncovered wood from the original drawbridge which has been carbon dated to 1270.
