Memories of Tuscany: Hilltop Ruin

Memories of Tuscany: Hilltop Ruin
A winding ploughed field track takes our eye and imagination directly to this ruin. What was it? - I have no idea, but it must have been a fair size with its many windows and high walls. Perhaps a castle of old, belonging to a Baron or Prince before being besieged?
This taken some miles Southwest of Volterra on our way back to Cecina.

The ploughing certainly gives great leading lines to the intriguing ruin, Herb.
