Jeff Thomas's Excellent castles of Wales web site has photo's and a floorplan at http://www.castlewales.com/beaumar.html . However for detailed measurements you'll really need a book. CADW who manage Beaumaris produce an excellent guide. Their is a contact address for them on Jeff's site.------------------ Neurotics build castles in the air, psychotics live in them, Psychiatrists charge the rent, art therapists do the interior design and nurses clean out the garderobes! http://www.castlesontheweb.com/members/philipdavis/index.html

I have a video tour of Beaumaris Castle on CD but it is in a non-standard video format and I can't find a program that can play it. It came from the CD game Castles II - Siege and Conquest from Interplay. The narrator is a historian I forget the name . The file is 14.3 megs in MVE format if anyone has an appropriate reader I will send it. Otherwise buy the CD and watch the walkthrough movies of all the castles.. it also includes 3d models and floorplans.Brian Canada aka Amberein du la Anair
