Beaumaris is known as the greatest castle never built. The castle was constructed as part of Edward I's campaign to conquer north Wales after 1282. Whilst Edward and his architect James of St George had grand visions for the castle, lack of funds meant building work petered out in the 1320s. As such, the south gatehouse and the six great towers never reached their intended height and the Llanfaes gate was hardly started before work was abandoned.
