A 3D model has been created of a triangular Scottish castle described as "unique among British castles".
It is part of wider efforts to digitally document all of Historic Environment Scotland's sites and objects.
The Rae project - named in tribute to 19th Century explorer John Rae - is about 40% complete.
Caerlaverock Castle, in Dumfries and Galloway, is one of the latest sites to be added.
HES has released the images to let people continue to enjoy the building's "pleasing geometry" during lockdown.
It's a very nice model . If you want to explore it some more, then you can view it from all angles here. Or, if you want to read more about the Rae Project itself (and some of the other things they've been digitising), then you can do that here.
(Strange how I've ended up starting two topics about Scottish fortifications today... but, they're largely unrelated to one another, and it's just the way the chips have fallen )
