Screaming Heads

This next layout I am sharing is taken from a sketch from "Stuck" September 15th Challenge.  You can find all the info here.

While in Burks Falls this summer, we went to a site called "Screaming Heads".  A Midlothian Castle is the creation and home of  an artist and sculptor who's created an unusual residence in the form of a castle complete with sculpture garden on an old 310 acre farm which is most commonly known as "Screaming Heads". The castle, a former farmhouse, is guarded by a fire-breathing dragon which sits on the chimney and emits smoke whenever the fireplace is used. Gargoyles sit atop a fence surrounding the castle.  Scattered throughout the property are more than a hundred screaming head sculptures created over a 30 year period, each one is approximately 20 feet high and can weighs as much as 30 tons.......very, very interesting!

Here's my layout:
