More about this scene
The Hill of Bran rises just to the north-east of Llangollen; perched high upon its summit is the ruin of Castell Dinas Bran. This is where Gruffydd ap Madoc withdrew after giving his support to the English Crown against the Welsh. Built out of local shale and slate, the castle is thought to have been built by Madoc in about 1236, though it could be earlier.

I was a member of Ystrad Hall also - I don't remember you Billy Crawford, what year was you there? Llangollen was a great place, I believe there was a lot of child molesting going on that's why you don't hear much about this strange place - It turned out to be a cash cow for the likes of Dick and the Rat ...
I was a pupil at Ystrad Hall and would just like to say that in my time there I have some of the best memories of this lovely little town. I often wonder what became of Ystrad and many of my friends and of course staff members, many of whom were local. The Horseshoe Pass, the castle, fishing in the Dee, the Copper Kettle, I could go on. This is a really nice web site and I will be visiting it lots. Hope I hear from someone I know. All the best . Billy Crawford.
