Produce a detailed written description of a dreary scene outside a town castle with masonry, rubble, and a moat.

Broken masonry and trash clog the moat at this junction, forming a makeshift dam that prevents stagnant water from spoiling the northern Keep. The upper ramparts stand in ruin, clearly the source of all the rubble, but still high enough to thwart intruders despite its dilapidated condition. Unlike the dank, water-logged channel southwards, the moat looks dry and solid to the east.
