Exploring The Beautiful Bronllys Castle

This Motte and Baily castle in Powys, Wales was founded c. 1110 by Richard Fitz Pons a marcher lord on the border with Wales. The original castle was built of wood but was replaced with a stone structure by Walter de Clifford sometime between 1144 and 1165 when it is reported that the tower caught fire.

Even though there are no ceilings or floors left, you can go right to the top of its tower, where there are some lovely views.
