    Notes on slide 1

    Edinburgh Castle

    The castle stands up on the plug of an extinct volcano, which is estimated to have risen some 350 million years ago, during the lower Carboniferous period. The Castle Rock is the remains of a volcanic pipe, which cut through the surrounding sedimentary rock, before cooling to form very hard dolerite, a type of basalt. Subsequent glacial erosion was resisted by the dolerite, which protected the softer rock to the east, leaving a crag and tail formation.[3]

    The One O'Clock Gun is a time signal, and is fired every day, except Sunday, at precisely 13:00. The gun was established in 1861, as a time signal for ships in the Firth of Forth, and complemented the time ball, which was installed on Nelson's Monument in 1852, but which was useless during foggy weather. The gun could easily be heard by ships in Leith Harbour, 2 miles (3.2 km) away. Because sound travels relatively slowly (approximately 343 metres per second (770 mph)), maps were produced in the 1860s to show the actual time when the sound of the gun was heard at various locations in Edinburgh.[92]

    The original gun was an 18-pound muzzle loading cannon, which needed four men to load, and was fired from the Half Moon Battery. This was replaced in 1913 by a 32-pound breech loader, and in May 1952 by a 25-pound Howitzer.[93] The present One O'Clock Gun is a L118 Light Gun, brought into service on 30 November 2001.[94]

    The Half Moon Battery, which remains a prominent feature on the east side of the Castle, was built as part of the reconstruction works supervised by the Regent Morton, and was erected between 1573 and 1588.[78] The Forewall to the north was built between 1689 and 1695, to link the Half Moon to the Portcullis Tower, although part of the original wall of 1540 was incorporated into it.[78]

    The Half Moon Battery was built around and over the ruins of David's Tower, two storeys of which survive underneath the Battery, with windows facing out onto the interior wall of the Battery. Several rooms are accessible to the public, although the lower (ground floor) elements are generally closed. David's Tower was built on an L-plan, the main block being 15.4 by 11.6 metres (51 ft × 38 ft), with a wing measuring 6.3 by 5.6 metres (21 ft × 18 ft) to the west.[78] The entrance was in the inner angle, although this was later filled in to make the tower a solid rectangle. Outside the tower, but within the Battery, is a three-story room, where large portions of the exterior wall are still visible. The walls of these sections are pitted with holes, where chunks of stone were removed to provide nesting places for pigeons, for consumption during the winter months.

Subsequent glacial erosion was resisted by the dolerite, which protected the softer rock to the east, leaving a crag and tail formation.[3]

    The One O'Clock Gun is a time signal, and is fired every day, except Sunday, at precisely 13:00. The gun was established in 1861, as a time signal for ships in the Firth of Forth, and complemented the time ball, which was installed on Nelson's Monument in 1852, but which was useless during foggy weather. The gun could easily be heard by ships in Leith Harbour, 2 miles (3.2 km) away. Because sound travels relatively slowly (approximately 343 metres per second (770 mph)), maps were produced in the 1860s to show the actual time when the sound of the gun was heard at various locations in Edinburgh.[92]

    The original gun was an 18-pound muzzle loading cannon, which needed four men to load, and was fired from the Half Moon Battery. This was replaced in 1913 by a 32-pound breech loader, and in May 1952 by a 25-pound Howitzer.[93] The present One O'Clock Gun is a L118 Light Gun, brought into service on 30 November 2001.[94]

    The Half Moon Battery, which remains a prominent feature on the east side of the Castle, was built as part of the reconstruction works supervised by the Regent Morton, and was erected between 1573 and 1588.[78] The Forewall to the north was built between 1689 and 1695, to link the Half Moon to the Portcullis Tower, although part of the original wall of 1540 was incorporated into it.[78]

    The Half Moon Battery was built around and over the ruins of David's Tower, two storeys of which survive underneath the Battery, with windows facing out onto the interior wall of the Battery. Several rooms are accessible to the public, although the lower (ground floor) elements are generally closed. David's Tower was built on an L-plan, the main block being 15.4 by 11.6 metres (51 ft × 38 ft), with a wing measuring 6.3 by 5.6 metres (21 ft × 18 ft) to the west.[78] The entrance was in the inner angle, although this was later filled in to make the tower a solid rectangle. Outside the tower, but within the Battery, is a three-story room, where large portions of the exterior wall are still visible. The walls of these sections are pitted with holes, where chunks of stone were removed to provide nesting places for pigeons, for consumption during the winter months.
