The Rhuddlan Royal Eisteddvod - Rhuddlan Castle, [in Wales], 1850. View of '...the exterior of Rhuddlan Castle from the St. Asaph side of the bridge. The western towers are shown...The castle, or rather the ruins, is square in form, with six towers. The original founder was Prince Llewelyn ap Seisyllt, in 1020...The Castle ruins cover about two acres and a half; and the lofty western walls, covered with moss and ivy, have a very picturesque aspect. Our Artist has engraved the portcullis at the south-eastern entrance. Over the ditch a wooden bridge has been erected for the visitors. Booths and tents for refreshments have been erected around the ancient moat on all sides'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
