More about this scene
The fortified manor of the Wynn family, built at various stages from around 1490, is seen with carefully tended beds and wisteria and ivy-clad walls. Along with the magnificent town house of Plas Mawr in Conwy, they illustrate the dominance of this family in this region over many centuries. Shortly after this photograph was taken, in 1899, the future George V stayed here; part of the castle was destroyed by fire in the 1920s.
