    Just wondered if anyone know's how the Caer came into Caerlaverock. The name seems quite 'Welsh' in a way .. ie Caerphilly etc. Be interesting to find out.

    I've not posted pics yet since everyone else seems to be a better photographer than I am.

    This one, however, I actually like. Its taken looking down on the inner courtyard at Caerlaverock Castle. Looking through the archway (and missing wall) into the Banqueting Hall and then through the (missing) outer wall to the moat and moors beyond.

    That's very interesting Derek as Caer is indeed "fortress" (sometimes castle although castell is more usual in Welsh.

    I checked a translation site and the Scots Gaelic word is caisteal for castle. I couldn't find an equivalent word for fortress.

    Perhaps Robertson or Alex can give us any clues?

    Methinks the Laird of Lochaber is up to something.
