Norman Kidwelly Castle
Kidwelly Castle is a Norman castle built in around 1114 as part of a defensive series of castles designed to subdue the Welsh. Built on a steep ridge overlooking the tidal section of the River Gwendraeth Kidwelly Castle is an imposing castle with formidable battlements.
In the mid 13th century Kidwelly Castle was extended by the de Chaworth into the great castle we see today. The Great Gatehouse of Kidwelly Castle took nearly a century to complete and was still unfinished during a Welsh siege of 1403.
In 1422 Kidwelly Castle finally had its lead roof in place and apart from a few later additions Kidwelly Castle layout has remained the same until today.
