The first shows the castle in its surrounding landscape. Why might it have been built here? Can you spot any geographical features which might have made this a good location for a medieval castle? 185 miles above sea level 200 miles above sea level 160 miles above sea level Brook off the River Ceiriog Now look at the second map. It shows a simple aerial plan of the castle. How can you see that the castle was built for defence? Is it missing any features you might expect a medieval castle to have? Extension activity Historians think that Chirk Castle may have been designed by James of St George, the same man who built Beaumaris Castle in Anglesey. Look at this plan of Chirk Castle and research the design and features of Beaumaris. Then, draw a table or write a short piece of writing comparing the design and features of the two castles. How are they different? What are the similarities between them? During your visit to Chirk Castle… Compare what you see in front of you to these two maps. Does anything look different? Can you spot any of the geographical features shown on the first map? Can you spot which tower is which? Is there any important feature in the building or in the landscape which has not been shown on the maps? 3 Building a Castle Step 2: Defensive Architecture Chirk Castle was built in 1295 as a defensive fortress to allow Edward I, King of England, to maintain control of the lands on the Welsh border. Standing at the entrance to the castle today, you can see many of the defensive features which have survived for over 700 years., but you can also see how the castle has been adapted later in time to be a more comfortable family home. This activity will help you to spot all the different original features and later additions to the castle. First things first, what can you see in front of you? Stand facing the castle and draw a picture of it in the box on the right. Then turn around and draw a picture of the view.

Standing at the entrance to the castle today, you can see many of the defensive features which have survived for over 700 years., but you can also see how the castle has been adapted later in time to be a more comfortable family home. This activity will help you to spot all the different original features and later additions to the castle. First things first, what can you see in front of you? Stand facing the castle and draw a picture of it in the box on the right. Then turn around and draw a picture of the view. Now that you’ve got an idea of the size, shape and surroundings of the castle, it’s time to look a little closer. Turn back towards the castle and find three features of the building which you think were put in to defend it: 1. Round ‘drum’ towers to protect the inner walls and allowed people inside to fire in any direction. 2. High, thick stone walls. 3. Partial moat (part of the original which disappeared in later rebuilding). Now see if you can find two features which might seem a bit unusual in a medieval castle, and which might have been added or removed in a later period: 1. Big, wide, glass windows—unhelpful for defence but added to let more light into the later family home. 2. There is no portcullis or drawbridge—removed in a later period. Why do you think these changes might have been made? Why would they make the castle harder to defend? See above. Windows could be easily broken by canon/arrow-fire, unlike the older arrow-slit windows. Without a portcullis or drawbridge, and with only a partial moat, if an enemy reached the castle, they would have found it much easier to get into the courtyard. Explore more and discuss as a group Carefully go down the grassy slope by the stone bridge to see when it was built. What might it have replaced? Can you see any marks left by what might have been there before? The stone bridge replaced the drawbridge. The date the bridge was put in can be seen on the arch. Marks from ropes and chains can also be seen around the bridge. Go into the entrance archway. Can you see where a portcullis might have fitted? There are grooves in the doorway where the portcullis would have slid up and down. Take a look at the doors. What features do they have to make them more secure? They are thick and reinforced with metal bars. 5 Under Attack! The year is 1400, and tensions on the border between England and Wales are at boiling point. Due to its location, Chirk Castle is in great danger of being attacked. Thomas, Earl of Arundel, holds the castle, but he has been called away to join Henry IV’s conflict against the Welsh rebel Owain Glyndŵr. He has left you in charge of castle defence, and now Glyndŵr’s supporters are attacking! How will you defend Chirk Castle? Instructions Head up to the first floor room in the Adam’s Tower and take a look around to see how you might defend the castle from an attack. Then, complete the activity below by matching up the defensive features with the weapons they might allow you to use or defend yourself against. Finally, fill in any extra information on how and when you might use each feature.

  • Wales & the Cotswolds
    WALES & THE COTSWOLDS JULY 3 – JULY 22, 2015 | £3,199* per person Our tour includes one of the most in-depth explorations of Wales and the Welsh borderlands available: some the best of the Cotswolds; a visit to the famous Ironbridge Museum, otherwise known as the Valley of the Industrial Revolution; and finishing at Highclere Castle, better known as Downton Abbey. Our routing is always via the most picturesque and varied countryside, concentrating on Britain’s heritage wherever possible — its ruins, castles, palaces, abbeys and stately homes containing many interesting and varied collections, many of which have featured in movies and familiar TV series. The great thing about the majority of these wonderful attractions in the countryside is that they are nearly all also museums in themselves. We visit some of the loveliest Cotswold villages, with their gorgeous thatched cottages and honey-coloured stone. In addition to history, our emphasis throughout is spectacular scenery, amazingly different architecture due to both the construction periods and the use of local building materials (mostly due to the astonishingly diverse geology of Britain), and glorious gardens, so that the entire trip is a photographer’s dream. We include up to 35 different attractions with no ‘optional extras’. We stay in lovely hotels with great food, sometimes in very small places, where the emphasis is more on local charm than on North American-style modernization! INCLUDED IN THE PRICE Airport transfer for those arriving with the majority of the group • Accommodation and transportation • Breakfasts and dinners as specified • Admission to all attractions as per the detailed itinerary • Escort throughout The tour is escorted by Maggie Rodgers who has taught Travel courses for Continuing Education in Vancouver, Surrey and White Rock, British Columbia, for several years.

  • 18 April 2019. Dear , ATISN 13078 – Freedom of Information Request
    18 April 2019. Dear , ATISN 13078 – Freedom of Information Request – Caerphilly Castle. Thank you for your request, which was received on 21st March 2019, about Caerphilly Castle. The information you requested is enclosed. A copy of all proposals, in their current form for the Castle, its grounds and waters (also referred to elsewhere as the ‘masterplan’). Please find attached the current Part A and Part B Masterplan documents. It is important to stress that this is a broad framework that helps capture a range of outline projects, themes and ideas that will be explored through formal business and option appraisal arrangements over the next three years. We will not necessarily be pursuing all of the projects, or in the form that they are suggested, in the plan. In as full detail as possible the planned works to the lakes and moats and the purpose of these works. The only current planned works is to undertake annual Canadian Pondweed clearance between 3rd – 21st June and 30th Sept – 18th October 2019, as agreed with the Caerphilly Angling Club and NRW at a meeting held on 20th December 2018 with Cadw. These works are necessary to control the invasive, rapid weed growth in order to maintain the biodiversity (i.e. the health of the moat and the wildlife living within in it) and the aesthetics of the moat. No further works are planned beyond this presently. 1 Any formal risk-assessment in respect of the issue of back to back fishing on the Northern Lake walkway. Cadw have not undertaken any formal risk assessment in relation to the above.

Repeated requests to Visit Wales for information to support this evidence remain unanswered but will be made available to the Committee once received. 2. With the benefit, however, of access to the 35 pages of evidence submitted by Welsh Government on 11th September 2017,1 and evidence submitted to the Welsh Affairs Committee in 2014 on the International representation and promotion of Wales by UK bodies,2 This Week Wales begged permission to submit this supplementary evidence after its first submission,3 which may have appeared over-critical in paragraphs 10 and 11, and unnecessarily harsh in paragraph 20. But there was good reason for this, which this evidence addresses in detail to help break the mold and liberate tourism for Wales. History 3. On devolution in 1998, Wales inherited a UK tourism Act unfit for purpose in the new digital marketplace. It presented the Wales Tourist Board (WTB)4 with a difficult challenge: to get to grips with the dynamics at play in this new marketplace; recognise the resistance to change from vested interest, and gain consensus on how best to move forward. 4. The Board had largely failed to achieve this before being abolished in 2006 along with the Welsh Development Agency (WDA)5 and Education and Learning Wales (ELWa).6 WTB’s functions were transferred in 2006 to the National Assembly for Wales under the 2005 Abolition Order7 and subsequently to the Welsh Ministers under the Government of Wales Act 2006.8 5.

  • DON‛T FORGET OVERTON FETE - SATURDAY JUNE 27Th
    Volume 11. Issue 6 June 2009 Overton’s Free Newspaper ­ issued monthly DON‛T FORGET OVERTON FETE - SATURDAY JUNE 27th PEDALLING TO LA MURETTE This July we are off to La Murette on our bicycles. We start the ride in Overton and legs permitting will cover the 750 miles to La Murette to arrive at the same time as the rest of the group who are travelling by plane. The main purpose of the ride is to raise funds for the Overton & La Murette Twinning Association and The Rainbow Centre, Penley. • The Rainbow Centre has been housed for over 10 yrs in make­do accommodation dating from World War II. Now, thanks to the tireless efforts of the local community, a rebuilding programme to provide modern facilities has been started. The centre provides an excellent service for the infirm and elderly from our area. Funds have been tight and hard­won so all contributions will make a real difference in ensuring a comfortable and stimulating environment in the new building. • Our Twinning Association is celebrating its 15th Anniversary this year. Thanks to the foresight of the Community Council, our village extended the hand of friendship to a similar community in S.E. France in the early 90’s. All residents of Overton Parish are automatically members of the Association. We feel that encouraging positive atti­ tudes between our two countries is of vital importance and the many strong links and friendships that have been formed over the years are a testament to this ethos. We ourselves are entitled to bus passes (just!) but these will be locked away out of reach for the duration, so every mile will be covered under our own steam.
