More about this scene
Harlech Castle, built 1283-1290 for Edward I by Master James of St George, the military achitect, as a statement of his military power. Owain Glyndwr took the castle for the Welsh in 1404 and held it until 1409, and it was under siege again during the Wars of the Roses in 1460. The bravery of the besieged Lancastrians was lauded in the song 'Men of Harlech'. The castle also saw action in the Civil War, surrendering to Cromwell's force in 1649. Many will find the view beyond the castle interesting as it shows the present secondary school under construction, while the residential developments beyond have yet to take place and all we see is a large camp of tents.
