Wooden head

The wooden head is on the gatehouse.
Taken at Stokesay Castle in Shropshire

Stokesay Castle is quite simply the finest and best preserved fortified medieval manor house in England. Set in peaceful countryside near the Welsh border, the castle, timber-framed gatehouse and parish church form an unforgettably picturesque group.

makes me realise why you go there a lot and still find more; a splendid detail & I thought it looks a touch oriental, but perhaps a homespun 'green man'

For some reason he reminds me of a pirate. I'm sure that there is no piracy connection with Stokesay so it's just a random link in my mind :0(
Nicely spotted and captured!
