Wakabayashi Yashiki
Wakabayashi-yashiki is a fortified residence site close to Ishida Castle. It is thought to predate the castle, however. Today it is a rural homestead, but dorui (earthen ramparts) and a narrow karabori (dry moat) remain on the western side. At the edge of the dorui is a hōkyōintō (宝篋印塔) stone pagoda
History
Wakabayashi-yashiki was the medieval fortified residence of the Wakabayashi Clan. The Wakabayashi were vassals of the Katagiri Clan. Constructed at an unknown time, the yashiki was used up until 1516.
