A Day out in Caerphilly

 


Checking the menu outside the pub where we had our first lunch back in 2013,

before moving on to see the castle again.  A small castle was built here in 1268 by an invading Norman Lord, which a Welsh Prince destroyed in 1670. Why didn't he keep it for himself? Tap the image to read a very concise account of its history. learn never cross a Welsh Lady.


This beautiful image belies the purpose for building it. Spot the man trying to stop the tower from falling over.


The West Wing.


Passing by Caerphilly's son, Tommy Cooper,


time for lunch, but not at the Kings Arms,


one with a view of the Castle, of course.

The Court's Porch Repaved

 

Timely for the summer bloom.
