The Castle stands on a site of several earlier castles dating back to the year 1100. The first castles were built during the Norman invasion of Gower; they were basic structures probably built of wood on an earth mound. These early castles were easy targets for the Welsh, who burned them to the ground. The castle you see today was built in the mid-thirteenth century. Why not explore a piece of history, it is open to the public from Easter to September
