HARLECH
CASTLE
I didn't draw this one. Nice work Shawn
Brown! Visit the site http://www.ShawnBrown.com. Harlech Castle
in Gwynedd, West Wales was built from 1283-1289 by the English monarch
Edward I. It was one of the most formidable of his "iron ring" of
fortresses designed to contain the Welsh. Ironically, in 1404 it
was taken by Welsh leader Owain Glyn Dwr. Harlech was eventually
reclaimed by the English under Henry V, and it again saw service in the
Wars of the Roses. It is very rare these days, to see a Medieval
castle this intact! I converted this castle to a present-day
mansion in collection 2, plan 7720.
