There are numerous well-known castles to be explored in North Wales such as Caernarfon, Beaumaris and Conwy etc. There are many lesser known but very interesting castles and well worth visiting such as Rhuddlan Castle.

Rhuddlan Castle (Welsh: Castell Rhuddlan) is a castle located in Rhuddlan, Denbighshire, Wales. It was erected by Edward I in 1277, following the First Welsh War. Rhuddlan is next to the River Clwyd.

During the fortification's lengthy construction, the river course was straightened and dredged to allow ships to sail inland along a man-made channel. Its purpose was to allow provisions and troops to reach the castle even if hostile forces or a siege prevented overland travel.

A further protective earthwork and timber structure was created around it in 1280-82. The castle was completed prior to the rebellion of Llywelyn the Last in 1282.
