Christmas in a castle

A pre-Christmas stay in St Briavels, near Gloucester, allowed us to sleep in the remains of a Norman castle once used as a hunting lodge by King John and now run as a hostel by the YHA. It includes an Oubliette prison – pit in which prisoners were thrown (and forgotten?). However we were not allowed to leave Adam and Eleanor there while we enjoyed ourselves.
