GREEN CASTLE (CASTELL MOEL), Llangain, Carmarthenshire 2014
Notes on GREEN CASTLE (CASTELL MOEL), Llangain, Carmarthenshire 2014
A 15th century castle, reputedly a mansion house, long ruined (since late 16th century) and stands on a hill overlooking river Twyi. The spring greens had begun to spread and finding suitable viewpoints was a challenge. The bluebells, now over, made climbing the small hill ridiculously hazardous, especially with 20 kilos of camera equipment on my back, has each foot slipped and I felt myself lose ground, rather than gain. But that said, a nice place, just above the main road from Carmarthen to Llanstephan.
