- Hello and welcome to Mia's Drone Adventures! Today we are heading off to the beach of Deganwy, although the sun was shining all day by the time I managed to get the drone up in the air it had become quite dull. Here is how the capture went!
Deganwy (Middle Welsh Degannwy, Brythonic *Decantouion) is a small town (and electoral ward) in Conwy County Borough in Wales with a population of 3,936 (2011).
It lies in the Creuddyn Peninsula alongside Llandudno (to the north) and Rhos-on-Sea (to its east). Historically part of Caernarfonshire, the peninsula is in a region of north Wales where as many as 1 in 3 of residents are able to speak Welsh.
Deganwy is located to the east of the town of Conwy (which is on the opposite side of the River Conwy) and with it forms the Conwy community. The name Deganwy has been interpreted in modern times as Din-Gonwy, which would mean "Fort on the River Conwy", but the historical spellings make it impossible for this to be the actual origin of the name although mentioned in Domesday Book is "the territory of the Decanae tribe".
The original wooden castle was rebuilt in stone after 1210. Deganwy is in the ecclesiastical parish of Llanrhos, and has a Victorian era Gothic parish church dedicated to All Saints.
Deganwy's most notable feature is Deganwy Castle, situated 110 m above the town, which, in the 6th century was fortified as the stronghold of Maelgwn Gwynedd, king of Gwynedd. Deganwy appears to have been the capital of Gwynedd at this time, but this was later moved to Aberffraw on Anglesey.
The hill on which the castle was built was fortified many times over the centuries. It was the site of a Norman castle built around 1082 and occupied by Robert of Rhuddlan, and later by Llywelyn the Great and Llywelyn ap Gruffudd. The castle was later demolished by Llywelyn ap Gruffydd in 1263 so that only ruins remain today.
Nanna and grandad lived here for many years, both sadly passed away but fab memories coming here to see them!
