You know what this means don't you? I'm going to have to go back to count them. We did actually stop at each floor, so I never gave it a thought. I know that last floor up to the battlements had 40 steps, because the lovely guide 'Evelyn' told us so.<br />I'm so sorry about the no-reply comment, but it's maybe because you have a yahoo email address.

I found that if I could just keep on walking up and ignoring my claustrophobic feelings that the view - just like this one - was well worth the effort.
