The image captures a view of the Kenilworth Castle from the outer courts. The ruin looks mostly intact from this point of view as the structure on the right doesn't seem to have any missing parts. The structure on the left has the walls mostly intact, but the roof in missing. Ivory is starting to take over the walls of both structures. In the distance there is another smaller structure that has two arched windows and a mostly intact wall.
