Tonomura Yakata (Omi)

The site is now private residences. I happened to pass by on the way to Tokugen'in and the site of Kashiwabara Castle (Omi) when I noticed it appear when searching for nearby historical sites. I have confirmed the co-ordinates on 'Iseki Walker'.

History

Tonomura-yakata was the medieval fortified residence of the Tonomura Clan.
