This looks like a cell. When a tourist suddenly came into the window on the other side, both of us kinda got spooked. *LOL*
Ahh... and this was my special encounter at Fort Cornwallis :) Nice lil doggie basking in the sun on a bed of grass... he/she looked contented. The great guardian of Fort Cornwallis.
