The gun deck itself exudes an air of strength and resilience, reflecting its vital role in defending against potential threats during a tumultuous period in English history. Each cannon stands as a testament to the castle's military might and unwavering commitment to safeguarding its surroundings. Ivan Lapper's graphic depiction expertly captures every intricate detail of this historic site. From the sturdy stone walls that encase the gun deck to each meticulously positioned cannon, his artistry breathes life into this long-gone era.
