About

Along the valley’s floor, the waters of the River Dee cut a wide arc around the base of Castell Dinas Bran, a conical tor surmounted by the evocative ruins of a native Welsh castle, built in the 1230s, above the town of Llangollen. Believed to have been built in the 1260s on the site of an Iron Age hillfort. Translate as ‘crow’s fortress’ the castle would have provided a far reaching view over Llangollen.
