Tower House
About this creation
"A tower house is a particular type of stone structure, built for defensive purposes as well as habitation. Such buildings were constructed in the wilder parts of Great Britain, particularly in Scotland, and throughout Ireland, beginning in the High Middle Ages and continuing at least up to the 17th century. The remains of such structures are dotted around the Irish and Scottish countryside. Some are still intact and even inhabited today, while others stand as mere shells in a field or on a hillside." - Wikipedia

Approximately 1,000 1x2 Bricks went into this MOC & I estimate about 1,500 bricks total. This MOC began as an experiment with irregular shapes, so unfortunetly there is no interrior at this time.

This MOC was featured on The Brothers Brick

Very nice. I like where your going with this one. A decent looking fortified home. Everything looks sharp, however I'm a bit put off by the gaps in the towers created by the hinges. Still, a very charming MOC.
