Dinefwr Castle, Llandeilo

Quite a compact build this one.  Thought to have been constructed in the late 1100's.

A short walk across fields,

 up through a spooky wood,

 to the tiny front door.

another impressive build given the technology available 800 years back. 

 A great wall walk,

with impressive views around. Here across the river Tywi. I guess the views are as good a reason as any to seek out castles.   Out of the 600 castles Wales once had, 100 are still standing in one way or another.  Right, 12 down, 88 to go.
