The striking ruins of Denbigh Castle on top of a steep hill above the town provides commanding views out over the Vale of Clwyd and the undulating humped backed hills of the Clwydian Range.

Denbigh, built as part of Edward I’s 13th century campaigns against the Welsh, was constructed by Henry de Lacy, one of the king’s chief commanders. It was by no means the first stronghold to occupy this self-evidently strategic site: as if to emphasize English dominance, the castle was built over the stronghold of Dafydd ap Gruffudd, the Welsh leader crushed by Edward in 1282.
The building of the ‘new’ Denbigh from 1282 onwards (which removed all traces of the Welsh fortifications) created not only a castle but a new English borough protected by town walls.
