Arundel Castle Drawbridge

Started in the 11th century, the sizable castle is filled with the history of Howard and Fitzalan families and paintings by Reynolds, Van Dyck, and Gainsborough. Treasures include the prayer book and rosary beads Mary, Queen of Scots, used in preparing for her execution. The formal garden, resigned, is a triumph of beauty and order. It's drawbridge hinges a one end, which lifts via a system of chains, winches, and counterweights. Together with a moat, the drawbridge in a raised position restricts access to the castle walls and keep.
