More about this scene
The first castle here was built by the Normans, and rebuilt by Edward I. It was captured by Owain Glyndwr in 1404 and recaptured by Prince Henry in 1408. The castle was held for the King in the Civil War, but surrendered in 1646, and subsequently fell into decay. The ruins were transformed into public gardens - here we see a crowd gathering to watch a Pierrot troupe (right).
