Vandring

Crickhowell Castle, also known as Alisby's castle, dominates the views from the delightful market town. The now Grade I-listed ruin began life as a motte and bailey castle in the 12th century and was rebuilt in stone in 1272. If you are in town to climb Table Mountain or hit the Sugar Loaf circuit, it's worth a visit.

There are few really nice pubs nearby, so great spot to refuel.

The first castle on this site was timber built probably by the Turberville family after the Norman invasion of the area.It was rebuilt in stone in 1272 by Sir Grimbald Pauncer-fote who married a Turberville heiress and was governor of the castle. Effigies of Sir Grimbald and lady sybil still lie in the parish church. Later the castle was seized by Roger Mortimer.But 1402 it was reverted to Sir John Pauncefote, Sir Grimwalds grand son .Under Royal command he reinforced the castle, but it failed to withstand Owain Glyndwr, s attacks that reduced it to ruin.
