Weobley Castle, Fortified manor house in Llanrhidian Lower, Wales
The stone structure stands on a cliff with large windows facing the Llanrhidian salt marshes and the Loughor Estuary in South Wales.
The de la Bere family constructed the castle in 1304, starting with the hall block and two south towers designed for residential purposes.
The castle interior displays architectural elements from Welsh nobility, including indoor latrines and a private chamber known as the lord's solar.
Admission costs £5.10 for adults and £16.30 for families, with free entry for children under five and disabled visitors with companions.
A medieval limekiln located outside the east block indicates the industrial activities that occurred at this residential fortress.
