The village of Abergwyngregyn (often shortened to Aber) is on the north coast of Wales, a few miles east of Bangor. The Mound: Pen-y-Mwd is a substantial, steep-sided, sub-circular earthwork. It is a classic Motte, which is the high mound of a motte-and-bailey castle. It measures roughly 22 feet (6.7 meters) high. Motte and Bailey: Traces of a surrounding ditch and a potential Bailey (the outer defensive enclosure) to the south-east have been identified. The motte itself has never been excavated.

The foundations of St Mary's Church in Conwy date from 1172 and Aberconwy Abbey was completed in 1186. Since then the church has grown and changed. It was originally the Cistercian Aberconwy Abbey, but in 1283 King Edward I of England moved the abbey to Maenan. The church registers date from 1541. In the summer the church now also serves as a venue for the Conwy Classical Music Festival.

You can even walk the city walls at night! But you should have a good headlamp, as it is of course not completely barrier-free... ;-) A good part of the circular route is currently closed, but you can see a lot on the open part.

Before the English built the town of Conwy, Aberconwy Abbey, the site was occupied by a Cistercian monastery favoured by the Welsh princes,[3] as well as the location of one of the palaces (called llys) of the Welsh princes. From Conwy: "the oldest structure is part of the town walls, at the southern end of the east side. Here one wall and the tower of a llys [palace/court house] belonging to Llywelyn the Great and his grandson Llywelyn ap Gruffydd have been incorporated into the wall. Built on a rocky outcrop, with an apsidal tower, it is a classic, native, Welsh build and stands out from the rest of the town walls, due to the presence of four window openings. It dates from the early 13th century and is the most complete remnant of any of his Llys." The location also controlled an important crossing point over the River Conwy between the coastal and inland areas of North Wales, that Deganwy Castle for many years had defended.

Conwy Castle is a fortification in Conwy, located in North Wales. It was built by Edward I, during his conquest of Wales, between 1283 and 1287. Constructed as part of a wider project to create the walled town of Conwy, the combined defences cost around £15,000, a massive sum for the period.

Approximately 1.3km long circular route with beautiful views of the city, castle, sea and surrounding area. The wall is almost completely preserved, only at the level of the train station the route is somewhat unclear. There are several access points, so you can stop off for a coffee in between. The tour is free.
