    Beaumaris Castle, located on the Isle of Anglesey in Wales, is one of the most outstanding examples of medieval military architecture, often considered the pinnacle of Edward I's campaign to conquer Wales.
    The castle is renowned for its symmetrical concentric design, featuring a sophisticated "walls within walls" structure. This layout includes an outer wall with numerous defensive towers and an inner wall with even more formidable fortifications, creating multiple layers of defense. The castle's entrance is protected by a substantial gatehouse, a fortified dock for supply ships, and extensive water-filled moats.
    Despite its impressive design and advanced defensive features, Beaumaris Castle was never completed due to financial constraints and changing political priorities. Nevertheless, the existing structures remain remarkably well-preserved.

    This is probably one of the best and ultimate castles to visit that Ive seen, it shows what a castle is meant to be a truly well designed layout. Thanks for the tour!

    You have a knack of binging the 'ruins' back to life with your amazingly professional and informative commentary. A very pleasant voice to listen to. I am in awe of the size of this castle, the walls and size of the rooms. Never hear about the architects of these monstrous large creations. How absolutely fascinating. Many thanks Alessa and Brett for your research and wish to visit this amazing place. A great share. 🩷👌🇳🇱🙋‍♀🥝

    "Never completed" but stunning as it stands. Same, stunning, can be said about your videos and narration, like watching the History Channel or similar. Terrific work my friend.

    It's quite ironic that a castle that was never completed in it's day looks more complete than most castles today. A fantastic tour Alessa, and super drone flying by Brett.

    Hi Alessa & Brett! Another magnificent Welsh castle. A castle within a castle - wow! Invaders would have found it quite a task to penetrate all those defensive obstacles. I'm not surprised there are ghostly happenings with all that gory horrible history! This castle ticks all the boxes. Fantastic footage and narration, so well researched. Thanks, guys and have a great week! ❤❤

    What an incredible place. Been to many castles in Wales but don’t think I’ve ever been to that one. I can understand why it wasn’t finished when you hear of the amount of stone mason and building materials needed.
    What a shame though it wasn’t finished because at its full height it would’ve been massive and so impressive which it already is

Nice design but looks quite short and stumpy compared to some 😂 As always superbly narrated with fantastic history! Your brain must be a sponge Alessa! We have a question? What is your all time favourite castle and why? We always love the ghost stories! Oh no we don’t want anyone feeling lonely! Ooo poor Roger 😮 and anyone that crosses him! Brilliant! It looks amazing from above! Have a great week guys ❤

    Thanks so much for this wonderful tour! We are headed to Wales later this week, first north and then south. We know we are going to Conwy Castle 🏰 but aren't sure which other ones to visit. This definitely has piqued my interest in Beaumaris. Well done!👍 XX Dara

    • @PinnedonPlaces
      @PinnedonPlaces  2 дні тому +1

      Hiya Dara, If you're heading up North, I'd honestly recommend Beaumaris 1000x over the castle and the town is exceptional! but also along the North Coast, a trip to Caernarfon and Harlech has to be on the list ( Both Edward 1st's excellent castles ) some other spots we think are Llandudno for the wonderful Great Orme and seaside (near to Conwy) and through Snowdonia they have some beautiful villages like the Cotswolds, one called Beddgelert and Capel Curig that I would recommend as I know you love your villages. As for the South, I know you've been to a few sites already but Castle Coch has to be on your list, I think you will LOVE the place, it's very fairytale like and beautiful. Other places I'd say are worth visiting would be Raglan Castle near Caldicot Castle too and Carreg Cannen. I hope that helps a little bit... and of course we cant wait to see it, but we've done quite alot of the South to be honest, with Wales we have a real soft spot for the place! Thank you for watching Beaumaris, really do appreciate it! xx
