Chateau over Barrou...


Does anyone know the name of this chateau that 'lords it' over Barrou. The pic was taken from the hill coming down from Le Grand Pressigny. Is it château des Courtils ? It is actually just across the river Creuse near the village of Maire in the Vienne. We once tried to get a closer look on one of our walks but it is private and kept so by a large boundary wall.
