Bolsover Castle

We went to see Bolsover Castle in the rain with Elder and Sister Allen. 
It was very informative because we each had an audio guide. 

Riding House stables which celebrates the legacy of
William Cavendish and his passion for horses.

Look who I found going down the stairs

Outside looking down on the garden with a Venus fountain.  
You could walk on top of the wall if was about 5 feet wide.

Check out this rounded door in the rectangular opening with moss, old ivy roots, and a small tree
 growing out the top above our umbrella.
