Huntington Castle, Medieval castle ruins in Gladestry, Wales.
The castle site contains earthwork remains of a fortified structure positioned strategically on elevated ground overlooking the surrounding Welsh countryside.
Construction of Huntington Castle began during the Norman period as part of the military network controlling the Welsh Marches border territory.
The castle represents the architectural and defensive strategies employed by Norman lords to establish control over Welsh territories during medieval times.
Access to the castle grounds requires careful navigation through private farmland, and visitors should contact local authorities for permission before exploring.
The remaining earthworks display a particular oval shape that differs from traditional motte-and-bailey castle layouts found elsewhere in Wales.
