We can see this magnificent castle from our back garden, high up in the hills of Abergele. As you can see, at the moment it is in a bit of a state of disrepair, but it was recently bought out and is being restored. We went to the grounds the other day for a storytelling event and found out some really fascinating facts about the castle.

• It was built between 1819 and 1825
• During World War II, the Government used the castle to house 200 Jewish refugees
• It was used in 1996 as the backdrop for Prince Valiant, a film starring Edward Fox, Joanna Lumley, and Katherine Heigl.
