The Little Stair Tower has a rather distinctive spire. The tower was a secondary porch to the fourth earl’s residence in the bailey:
It served the great chamber much as the Lion Tower served the great hall. It was heavily reconsolidated and partly rebuilt in the 1920s.*

I love old ruins. I’m amazed at the different towers. I’ve enjoyed this series.
Thanks
They are all rather different aren’t they?
