1/🏰 Hermitage Castle — Scotland’s Darkest Frontier Fortress

Rising alone in the desolate valley of Liddesdale, Hermitage Castle is one of the most intimidating medieval fortresses ever built in Britain.

Known as the "Strength of Liddesdale"

Castell Biwmaris, Ynys Môn 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Beaumaris Castle, 🏰

A medieval gem on Anglesey. // Castell Biwmaris, gem ganoloesol ar Ynys Môn.

Built by Edward I, never finished, yet stunning.

#MysteryMonday 🌊

This #WorldOceanDay, we’re exploring how the sea shaped Wales’ castles—from defence to supply routes and beyond.

This castle was designed to be perfect… but never finished. Surrounded by water, supplied by sea, and defended from every angle.

Step back in time at Bryn Celli Ddu, near Llanfair PG, for living history and folklore events this June, that seek to interrogate landscape, ritual, folklore, and the celebration of archaeology through creative interpretation.

@GPics @castlehunteruk @andrewsp2009 @RichardIIIGhost @zarahandley @cestyll Perched high above Bristol, the iconic Blaise Castle is more than just a pretty view!
This 18th-century folly was built to impress, but it hides a dramatic history of fortune lost at sea.
A must-visit spot for any history buff.

Ewenni Priory Church ⛪️

Separate from Ewenny Priory house 🏰

Still unclear why a small and not highly significant place like Ewenny would require such fortifications: were they built for show rather than defensive purposes?
