Dundarg Castle — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

A promontory fort on a coastal ridge became a castle in the 13th century, lost to siege and cannon, then reappeared as a gatehouse and later a house. The old ditch widened into a moat, the rock held pits and middens, and the surviving tower still stands beside the newer building. People may have lived, fought, worshipped or simply watched the sea from that ridge, layer upon layer across centuries.
