Castell Bere fence.

Castell Bere fence.
Last July we visited an old castle ruin in Wales. There is little there now but the ancient foundations, steps, low walls and one or two things like this.
‘Castell y Bere is a Welsh castle near Llanfihangel-y-pennant in Gwynedd, Wales. Constructed by Llywelyn the Great in the 1220s, the stone castle was intended to maintain his authority over the local people and to defend the south-west part of the princedom of Gwynedd’

Have a good weekend.

Ja in Großbritannien wurde viel Burgen in Schutt und Asche gelegt. HFF

Herb Riddle club has replied to Max Biobauer club
That is unfortunately correct Jens. We have very many spotted around the UK but I believe Germany has even more. Of course with the many battles and skirmishes that have taken place, (and we knew how to know these things down) many have almost disappeared. On the positive side, we have been preserving those that are left with some fervour, for many years now too.

HFF, enjoy the weekend. Herb

Es gehört zu meinen liebsten Wochenendbeschäftigungen alte Klöster, Burgen und Schlösser zu besuchen. Ich war zwar schon in Großbritannien aber die Verbindung die ich zur Geschichte des Landes habe, stammt eher aus Geschichtsbüchern, Filmen und Romanen. Dabei kommt immer wieder die Erkenntnis hoch, dass die Kriege von damals und heute nicht einfach nur viele Menschenleben kosten, sondern dass unglaublich viel Wissen, Ideen und Talente auf den Schlachtfeldern bleiben. Diese Menschen hätten im Frieden den gesellschaftlichen Fortschritt und die Wissenschaft vermutlich weit voran bringen können.

A beautiful landscape Herb.........captured in lovely light. The stone bridge and wooden railings make good foreground interesting and what's left of the castle looks interesting, especially when viewed large.

I like the juxtaposition of the two distant peaks with the two piles of stones in the ruins. They almost match!

Herb Riddle club has replied to Keith Burton club
Always good when you enjoy my holiday snaps Keith. Good that you saw a comparison between those two ruined towers? and the two pointed peaks. A good place to visit but we only had about an hour total here.

Cheers. Herb

Hi Herb
A really nice picture, which I like very much!
It confused me a little, as there is also a Llanfihangel-y-Pennant near Garndolbenmaen, (Cwm Pennant) not so far from me, but no castle there! Then I remembered it is by Tywyn (but it must be the only Welsh castle I have never visited).
Best Wishes, HFF, a nice weekend, and stay safe!!

Herb Riddle club has replied to Peter_Private_Box club
Nice to see you again Peter. I imagine there are a lot of repeated place names in your country. It was a great area that we visited whilst being just south of Barmouth. A fine expanse of a ruin here so you must make a visit soon.

Belated HFF, enjoy your weekend. Herbert

Another show of strength in stone which has since seen its builder consigned to a forgotten corner of a history book…yet it is impressive still, Herb.
