Wiston Castle is recognised as one of the best-preserved motte-and-bailey castles in Wales. It's thought that Wiston Castle was probably originally built by an early Flemish settler with the unusual and very cool name of Wizo.
There are no visitor facilities here. Steps lead up to the stone shell keep (approx 4m high), with great views of the Preselis to the North.
