Beaumaris Castle Anglesey North Wales

This is a Castle built in 1295 and never finished. Built by Edward I to subdue the Welsh it never saw action and anyway he ran out of money and the welsh culture is still going strong.

As a castle it is what might be call totally uncorrupted. The grass is kept neat and tidy but all else has been as it has always been for centuries. At the time of its construction it was state of the art. There are 4 major lines of defensive battlements. Everywhere inside, if one where fool hardy to go in the heat of battle, there is always a place to sling an arrow or even worse pour hot oils over you and no where to retreat.
