    The structures at the ends of the bridges are "Gatehouse 1" symbols from ProFantasy's "Source Maps: Castles!" product slightly customized for CC3 (ie. I replaced solid colours with bitmap fills, and may eventually draw up interior plans for the structures). This package is what got me started; my Twin Falls Castle design was largely inspired by the Beaumaris, Castel Del Monte and La Belle Colline plans from that collection. I find it a bit of a challenge drawing a CC3 map using a product designed for CC2; none of the tools, symbol sets or map templates take advantage of sheets or PNG bitmap symbols or fills, so I have to improvise a lot. However, I purchased the Source Maps Bundle containing "SM: Castles!"and its companion products "SM: Temples, Tombs and Catacombs!" and "SM: Cities!" more for their informational and inspirational content than their software tools, so I am very satisfied. (Although I wouldn't say "No" to a CC3 upgrade of the products. )

    Below is a slightly higher res version with the map borders removed and the grid subdued as suggested. I even added some labels, although I'll probably replace them with numbered tags and a map legend. Tell me what you think.
