I've had a characteristic change of heart, and latest plan for Westwatch is as follows:
- artificial bridge
- bulk of Westwatch ruins to be located on the north side - move the current tower over there
- north side ruins inspired by the Germans' Gate, Metz.
- in the spirit of the update, keep the existing south-side gatehouse (make it more dishevelled), add a temporary garrison for defenders from Sentinel Stand.
- raise up the surrounding shoreline so the nearby cliffs are higher
- make the area around the ruins more mountainous/treacherous. Getting the bridge should be a painful process for the freefolk (otherwise it'd probably be more of an appealing point of attack for Mance).
