Tarbert Castle is located on the southern shore of East Loch Tarbert, at Tarbert, Argyll, Scotland, at the north end of Kintyre. Tarbert Castle was a strategic royal stronghold during the Middle Ages and one of three castles at Tarbert. The castle overlooks the harbour and although pre 14th century in construction, the tower dates back to 1494.
A towerhouse was added in the 16th century, which is the most noticeable part of the remains. The castle occupies high land above the village, providing views up Loch Fyne and beyond to the Firth of Clyde.

Now this was scary. very dark with tripping hazards everywhere, and the only light was from Per's lighter. I couldn't really see what photo I was taking, and was surprised to find out that I had anything. Flash fired automatically of course.

Apparently Sir Walter Raleigh liked this view of the Old Castle, which at that time was not in ruins, so he kept this view clear, hence the name..

The Lady Chapel of Glastonbury Abbey is one of the finest late 12th-century monuments in Britain. It was built immediately after the disastrous fire which consumed much of the abbey in 1184, and was completed by 1186 or 1187.

Glastonbury Abbey was a monastery in Glastonbury, Somerset, England. Its ruins, a grade I listed building and scheduled ancient monument, are open as a visitor attraction.

The abbey was founded in the 7th century and enlarged in the 10th. It was destroyed by a major fire in 1184, but subsequently rebuilt and by the 14th century was one of the richest and most powerful monasteries in England. The abbey was suppressed during the Dissolution of the Monasteries under King Henry VIII of England. The last abbot, Richard Whiting (Whyting), was hanged, drawn and quartered as a traitor on Glastonbury Tor in 1539.

Ruin of St Michael's Church on Glastonbury tor

St Michael's Church survived until the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1539 when, except for the tower, it was demolished.
It remains a place of pilgrimage for some. Near the base of the tor when we had walked back down, there were lots of tourists walking up , including 2 women who had taken off their shoes in order to walk on the hallowed ground!

The early bird catches no tourists
