Penllyn Castle
Cowbridge, Glamorgan, Wales
Penllyn Castle is believed to be one of the first Norman keeps in Glamorgan. Originally an oblong tower, there are two surviving walls forming a corner of a derelict stable adjacent to the current mansion.
This location is private and has no or limited access only. The house is in private grounds, though there is a footpath that runs around it.
Access: publicStatus: n/aView from back road

"This is a view of the house across the treetops along a road that runs
behind it; this looks to be the only place it can be seen publicly by car,
though it might be possible to see the courtyard from the footpath?"
