CAERPHILLY
Historic and
atmospheric, this Welsh town is most famous
for the manufacture of crumbly cheese, yet its
most impressive attraction is a huge moated
castle dating to the 13th century; it covers
no less than 30 acres and has a ‘leaning’
tower caused by an ill-fated attempt to blow
it to smithereens during the Civil War.
