Interesting looking mounds and stone ruins ahead. I like a castle. OK, they were symbols of conquest, subjugation, dominance and control by a new foreign ruling élite bent on exploitation, self-aggrandisement, murder, ethnic cleansing, rape, theft, etc., etc. but today they are nice to wander around and think about Arthurian standards of chivalry, clothyard longs, Shakespearean pre-battle speeches and revolts.
