Castle Round the Back

 


A bigger building for my round the back series. Braemar Castle; proving that even wonderful old castles need somewhere to put the plumbing, the sheds, the telly aerial and even a cheese press! Just out of sight: a horrible old garage on the right, full of mowers, wood and bits of old furniture.

Surely more of us should own a cheese press... not that I'm entirely sure what a cheese press does...

The cheese press is a giant stone in a metal and stone framework that screws down to press a whole cheese. I have seen one at every castle and often old farms too. Presumably an essential bit of kit and also indestructible and too heavy to move, so they remain.
