We're swerving with the best of them now. Dirleton , while quite small, is much better preserved than Tantallon . It sits on a rocky mound dead smack in the middle of town, surrounded by a low stone wall. Nothing is really growing yet, except the grass, but it looks like it will be a beautiful formal garden in a few weeks. Then, there's this enormous expanse of perfect putting-green lawn, probably 20 meters square.
Lawn bowling looks a lot like bocce.
The front of Dirleton is impressive. It actually had a drawbridge and a deep ditch. Not a moat, unfortunately. It has huge round towers, but they are mostly destroyed. Downstairs is the kitchen, bakery, and storage in a huge vaulted room.
