Tumbledown means falling, or fallen, into dilapidation. To me it sounds nicer than neglected, devastated, destroyed or ruined.
The castle is Tarbert in Scotland. There are a lot of Scots towns and villages with the name Tarbert or Tarbet. That word means a narrow strip of land. It’s quite often where two lochs meet.
There you go – two words for the price of one! You can’t say I’m not good to you. Well, you could I suppose but I can’t hear you from here.
I do enjoy your words of the week. Most of them I know but you often add an additional slant. Thank you.

It’s interesting how words can have more than one meaning, isn’t it? (Especially if that allows me to sneak in one of my photos!)
