Another excellent photograph from flickr – this time it is a stunning photograph of the main keep of Cardiff Castle in Wales.
The site of Cardiff castle dates back to Roman fortifications from around AD 60, but the more recent, and more impressive castle, was built during the time of the Norman / Plantagenet kings of England. This served as a base for the Norman knights to dominate the surrounding lands and enforce the Norman rule over the Welsh.
Sadly, Cardiff castle is not part of the Heritage schemes (National Trust, CADW etc) so, unless you live in Cardiff it costs a bit to get in.
