Castle Calculations

Lady Catherine Anne Doreen Wolverstone likes to visit Welsh heritage sites in her spare time, she also likes maths.

By consulting the official website and no others, and doing a lot of counting, she has decided these are the ones she plans to visit next year, not necessarily in this order…

  • St Briavels Castle, Goodrich Castle, Caergwrle Castle

  • Coity Castle

  • Caerleon Roman Barracks and Baths

  • Y Gaer Roman Fort/Basingwerk Abbey - Caer Lêb Romano-British Farm

  • Dryslwyn, Ewloe, Harlech, Raglan and Ogmore Castles, as well as Bodowyr Chambered Tomb and Cymer Abbey

  • (Weobley Castle x Blaenafon Ironworks), (Neath Abbey x Beaumaris Castle), Caerphilly and Llanblethian Castles, and Tintern Abbey

Tweezers would be useful at final. Cattle sometimes present.
