Can you guess what is going into it?

> It indicates that the "White Tower - still the core of the present day
> Tower of London - in its original form was a three story, turrented
> structure standing almost ninety feet high." This was a fairly simple
> castle, although there were later castles that were either bigger or
> smaller. Many were larger in area, especially if you count the curtain
> walls and not just the keep.

> At two inches to a one foot scale, a doll house of the White Tower would
> be 180 inches (15 ft) tall. I can't tell if the ninety feet dimension
given
> includes the towers too or just to the roofline, so I assumed only 90 ft
tall.
> It looks to be about this big in length also, not including the curtain
wall
> which looks to be at least twice this long in one direction.

> Oooh. *I* want a living room that is 30 ft by 15 ft with 15 ft ceilings...
