Moat Cailin was once a great stronghold, with twenty towers, a wooden keep, and a great [[basalt]] curtain wall as high as that of [[Winterfell]]'s. Today only great blocks of black basalt lay scattered about, half sunk in the ground where the wall once stood, and the keep rotted away.{{ref|AGOT|55}}{{ref|ADWD|20}}

The remaining three towers, which are covered with green moss{{ref|AGOT|55}} and white [[ghostskin]],{{ref|ADWD|20}} command the causeway from all sides so that enemies must pass between them. Attackers face constant fire from the other towers should they attempt to attack any one tower, wading through chest deep water and crossing a moat full of [[lizard-lion]]s.{{Ref|AGOT|55}} 

The [[Children's Tower]] is tall and slender. It has only half of the crenellations of its crown. Legend has it that the [[children of the forest]] called upon [[old gods|their gods]] here to send the [[hammer of the waters]] to smash the [[Neck]].{{Ref|AGOT|55}}

The [[Gatehouse Tower]], the largest of the remaining towers, is squat and wide.{{ref|ADWD|20}} It is the only tower which still stands straight, even retaining some of the walls around it,{{Ref|AGOT|55}} although a tree grows through its northern side.{{ref|ADWD|20}} The tower's hall of dark stone is spotted with lichen and has a high, drafty ceiling. Within the hall is a massive carved table, also of stone.{{ref|ADWD|20}}

The [[Drunkard's Tower]] is so named due to its great lean. It stands where the south and west walls once met.{{Ref|AGOT|55}}
