Caerphilly Castle is considered one of the most remarkable mediaeval castles in western Europe. Its exceptional features include its enormous size, the second-largest castle in Britain after Windsor, its innovative use of water for defence and being one of the first authentic concentric castles built in Britain. Constructed in the late 13th century, the castle was a revolutionary masterpiece of military planning during its time.

It is incredible, I would certainly not like to try and take on Caerphilly's defences

I'd like to see it fully restored! 'And there's quite a history there! By the way, that's the "Braveheart" embellished movie-story there. As I recall, King Edward the second; Longshank's son, was really into Hugh Despencer, and indulged him more greatly than a man might indulge "another man". Somewhat accordingly, King Edward II was killed, in the "end". (Look it up.) Quite a story, history from life!

It would be amazing to see it how it once was! The Hugh Despenser tale is an intriguing and grissly one, if you want to hear more about him check out my Cardiff Castle videokzfaq.info/get/bejne/r5uibM-gqtTYqpc.html
