Aaargh Walls!!! (PiP)
Castle Stalker was built on it's own little island on Loch Laich an inlet off of Loch Linnhe near Appin in Argyll on the west coast of Scotland. Built in the 16th cenury for the Stewarts of Appin it is a four storey tower house in a beautiful setting and was once used as a hunting lodge for James IV. Indeed the Gaelic for Castle Stalker is Caisteal an Stalcaire, with Stalcaire meaning 'hunter' or 'falconer;'
Castle Stalker has been used in a number of films like 'Highlander - Endgame' and others, but will be instantly recognised by many as 'Castle Aaargh' from Monty Python and the Holy Grail. That fact alone is probably good enough reason to make this a 'Happy' Wall Wednesday!!!
A close up of the castle walls can be seen in the PiP and I think the main image would benefit from viewing large. Many thanks and HWW
I have added a song called 'Hunter' by Dido

I really love this part of the world and Castle Stalker may not be a big castle but it is certainly iconic and for me the setting is magical.
Best wishes Carol
