Very little to see, if you head towards Mahollam road junction, before the drive to castle cottages there is an unmarked double gate, easily opened, walk up the rise and look to the left and you should see the remains of the castle,

Originally a motte and bailey Norman castle, only the earthwork mound and ramparts remain now. The castle is accessible by public footpaths from the nearby village of New Radnor and the castle still command a ranging view over the village and countryside. The castle's former use as a gaol ensured New Radnor's status as the former County Town before that status was moved to the larger Presteigne.

This is the start point of the Glyndŵr's Way National Trail which winds through mid-Wales and ends at Welshpool. It's not as popular a trail as Offa's Dyke which is the main reason you'll meet other hikers here in Knighton.
