Montgomery Castle History / Welsh Border Battles & A Dangerous Love Affair

Montgomery Castle History / Welsh Border Battles & A Dangerous Love Affair
Montgomery Castle is situated in Powys, Wales and built on top of a steep crag which gives the castle’s location spectacular views of the Georgian town of Montgomery and nearby countryside. The stone castle was built in 1223 replacing an earlier timber structure, in times of strife between the English and Welsh along the Welsh Marches. Montgomery Castle has seen its fair share of action and the ruins that remain are dramatically striking.

I'm sure you can see it on youtube, but my name is montgomery! Been here once when i was just a wee lad so i don't remember it, thanks for this video.

[@castlesandlegends]

You are very welcome, happy it brought those memories back. The Montgomery family certainly have plenty of fascinating history and tales from the times of the Marcher lords 😉

Hi, awesome live history video I enjoyed it. How are you doing? I'm doing well and so is my cat Benjamin. Have you ever done St. Donats castle? I heard it's haunted. It's a castle in Wales. Have a great day see you next video 😊

[@castlesandlegends]

Hi, I'm doing very well and I'm glad that you and Benjamin are too. I have heard of St Donats however it is usually only open for tours on a few selected dates during the summer. We will be visiting another haunted Welsh castle though in next weeks video. Have a great weekend 😀
