The
First Floor of the Inner Ward provided living quarters for several
Triskelion family members and some of their most valued servants.
The majority of the rooms are of dressed stone, with wooden beams
supporting the ceilings. Ceiling height is generally sixteen feet.
Interior light was generally provided by candles and there are
mounted candle-holders on most of the walls in the corridors.
The
north-facing portion of the Inner Ward on the Ground Floor was
without windows due to the presence of solid rock where the castle
was dug out of the mountain. The first and higher floors, however,
are above the foot of the mountain and have north-facing windows.
The
First Floor directly connects to the Second Floor and the Ground
Level.
