Day 13 - Castle in the Mist

Mist is a slightly loose interpretation of water but it's another grey wet drizzly day & as I'm surrounded by the wet stuff I thought I'd photograph it.  This is Llantrisant Castle, or what little remains of it.  I would have liked someone walking along the path for a bit of extra interest but no - one else was fool enough to wander around in this murk!

The next shots are of the adjacent church. Like the castle the present building was built in 1246 although there has been a church here for 1300 years. It is dedicated to three saints, Illtyd, Gwynno & Dyfodwg and hence gives the town its name. Llan being a church or religious settlement, tri is Welsh for three and sant is saint, hence Llantrisant. End of history lesson!
