This print showcases the impressive Goodrich Castle in Herefordshire, a true testament to medieval fortification. The image captures a cutaway reconstruction of the gatehouse, skillfully crafted by Terry Ball from the English Heritage Graphics Team. As we face eastwards, our gaze is drawn to the intricate details within this architectural marvel. The focal point of this reconstruction lies within the upper chamber of the gatehouse, where an ingenious system of winches can be observed. These winches were specifically designed to raise and lower portcullises – heavy iron grilles that served as formidable barriers against potential invaders. This glimpse into medieval defense mechanisms offers us a glimpse into the strategic brilliance employed by those who built and defended these castles. The attention to detail in this graphic representation is truly remarkable; every stone meticulously placed and every mechanism expertly illustrated.
