After a walk through the cold, wind swept and abandonded Scottish countryside, I reached the gate of Tantallon Castle. However, that gate was closed.
It was only here that I realized the perfect location of Tantallon Castle. Surrounded on three sides by steep cliffs and a ditch and defensive wall on the other side, it was not easily conquered. And indeed, since it was built in the 14th century, it was often besieged but only occupied few times. The last and definitive conquest was done in 1651 by the army of Oliver Cromwell. It was heavily damaged and was the virtual end of Tantallon Castle as such. When I approached the gate after my visit, I saw a car waiting outside, and I was convinced it was a caretaker waiting for me. I reached the gate with my heart pounding, but when a man came out of the car to ask me if I could open the gate for them, I realized they were also visitors. Actually, they were friendly enough to offer me a ride back.
