What a lovely small castle with so much history behind it. That would be a fantastic restoration project to take it back to the original beauty. Thanks for the link, I love history

A combo of house and castle, I would love living here. Maybe I can order one to be build here in Oregon eh? Near the Ocean? That would be an attention getter!I went to the site and that was very interesting too. I actually like your photo more as it looks al snuggly in those trees. Very lovely.Glad you visited there and shared this with us Jimbo!! Verena.

A really sweet little building. I suppose its pristine condition gives away that it's American. European castles tend to look more 'knocked about'.

Those words "Free Admission" about Squire's Castle set me on fire! Shoot! Nothing like the word "FREE" to get me excited. It's such a beautiful place I would love to visit it one day as long as it is still FREE! Aren't I awful! Wonderful photo Jimbob!

HOME!!!!! Jim, you went to my part of town! :) Hope you enjoyed my part of the Buckeye State!
Actually Squires Castle is hallow, there's no back to it. Jim just captured the front of it. Great job on that btw... And I think Squires Castle is from the 1800's from what I remember the last time I visited..
