Launceston Castle Tiny Planet; Spiral Staircase
Launceston Castle Tiny Planet; Spiral Staircase
In this video, you can see my ascent up the spiral staircase in Launceston Castle, Cornwall, UK. I took the footage with my 360 degree camera and then I converted it into the Tiny Planet that you see here.
At one time Launceston was the capital of Cornwall and it was the only walled town in the county. Shortly after the Norman Conquest, William the Conqueror made his half-brother, Robert of Mortain, the Earl of Cornwall. Earl Robert built a castle at Launceston on the main transportation route between Cornwall and Devon. The castle was a traditional motte and bailey design.
In 1227 Robert, brother of Henry III, was made Earl of Cornwall, and he replaced the remaining Norman timber fortification with a strong stone castle and built a keep inside the circular tower.
Thanks for watching!

That's quite a scary view of the staircase !
After 5 years on the platform I have recently launched a Steem witness - @pennsif.witness.
You may know me for Steem News, which is now nearing its 500th edition.
As a witness I am running a Full API Node and a Seed Node. Together with the @steemwow team I have also launched Press4Steem, a plugin to connect WordPress sites with Steem.
It would be great if you are able to support my work by giving one of your witness votes to @pennsif.witness.
If you have any questions about Steem, or if I can help you with anything please contact me on Discord at @Pennsif#9921.
Thank you
