Castle Road, Raglan, Monmouthshire, NP15 2BTRaglan
A stunning late medieval castle dating from between the 15th and early 17th-centuries with a preserved moat and plenty of towers to climb. Built for show rather than with battle in mind, it still held off Oliver Cromwell's forces for thirteen weeks in one of the last sieges of the Civil War. The castle was eventually taken and was systematically destroyed by parliament.
