It takes a village to raise a castle....

Jt - one thing. The wooden posts look a bit too big - the fact that the wood-grain is visible feels wrong, particularly the posts (if that is what they are) holding up the bales of hay. Also those bales of hay should have a little shadowing along their western side from the wall. Ditto the water trough on the other side (you should place these objects on the same level as the roofs, so that they are below your shadow layer).

Great map. I agree with the others. Redoing it really paid off. The trees look more interesting and natural now. Well done!

Thanks for confirming my suspicions about those posts. I'd been staring at them for a while thinking that something was "off" The wood grain wouldn't be visible at this scale. I made them smaller and got rid of the wood grain as well. Thanks for the shadow suggestions. I just plain missed them. Another case of looking at something for so long and not seeing it. Thanks so much for all the help.

Thanks so much. And thank you for all the feedback.

Here is an updated version with the (hopefully) last of the issues addressed. As always feedback is requested and appreciated
