SH7879 : Castell Deganwy Castle
near to Deganwy, Conwy, Great Britain

Castell Deganwy Castle
The ruined walls of Deganwy Castle surmount a crag of Ordovician rhyolitic tuff. The original castle was of wood, but it was destroyed by the Welsh lest it fall to the English. The present walls are what remains of reconstruction by Henry III from 1245, although it was again destroyed by the Welsh in 1283.
