Description: Motte at Cas-lai/Hayscastle A tree-covered mound is all that remains of Haye's Castle, one of several such earth fortifications in the area, erected by the Normans advancing from the coast and attempting to take control of the hinterland. There is no sign of a bailey but the motte still possesses a boggy moat, seen here in the foreground.
