'Montaigle' was erected as a mighty castle in the 14th century on top of a rocky spur overlooking a green valley.
But 1554 meant the end of the castle when the French army besieged the stronghold and destroyed it completely.
Since then the ruins were used as a quarry by local farmers.
In the 19th century, some restorations were started but the castle was never rebuilt.
The house beneath the rocks is a private home. What a great place to live....... :-))
