Added a ladder so people can get on and off the walls, added battlements
to the front wall, diddled the left door in the top tower, diddled the
drawbridge and water around it to fit into the perspective better, added
horse by Andreas Freise, which fitted into the perspective perfectly 
after turning it around.

BTW: On the subjectof the 3 changes I mentioned. I took texturing the
     walls and the bridge as one change: texturing surfaces in general.
