Lovely image. Were the narrow windows for defense? Places to shoot arrows through?

Great composition and colour.

Really nice shot of this remaining remnant from times gone by. I guess it would have been a fairly uncomfortable place to have to spend time! No heating or running water!

I am curious why the difference in color/type stone between the bottom level and those above. Could the top three levels have been rebuilt at some time?
