Caernarfon Castle

Caernarfon Castle
Having come to the end of our Anglesey Weeks holiday in August 21, we divert to the Welsh town of Caernarfon so see its great medieval castle. This is one build by King Edward I of England in 1330 as part of his iron ring around Wales, mainly to subdue the Welsh princes against the English. It took 47 years to build and is recognised as one of the greatest buildings of the Middle Ages.
This fortress has a great deal of history but perhaps its most modern claim is as the place where Prince Charles was invested as the Prince of Wales in 1969.

A very good couple of pictures of the castle Herb. We stayed in the town for a week a few years ago. It might even have been 2014....I will have to check. A superb castle that dominates the town.

Wishing you all the best for 2022.

Delighted that you liked them Rosa. It looked a great place but the weather was pretty poor whilst we were here.

All the Best for you too. Herb

Thanks Toz. Yes a great place and I wish we might have had better weather. Yes, this scene has the advantage I think too.

Cheers. Herb

A fantastic shot of this beautiful castle Herb..................excellent work!

I think I may have been standing in the same spot as you in 2011 (albeit with a wider lens): www.ipernity.com/doc/keithburton/19476641

I'm playing catch up after having been away for a week. I apologise that I really don't have the time to comment on all the photos that I've missed, but I have had a look at them all and made liberal use of the yellow stars.

Good to see you again Keith. I like your wider shot a bit better than this one. I had left my wide angle in the car -a mistake perhaps. Glad you still liked this though. Cheers for the stars.

Keep safe. Herb
