Denbigh Castle and Town Walls

Highlight • Historical Site

Denbigh Castle and town walls (/ˈdɛnbi/ DEN-bee; Welsh: Castell Dinbych a waliau tref [ˌkastɛɬ ˈdɪnbɨχ]) were built to control the lordship of Denbigh after the Conquest of Wales by Edward I of England in 1282. The lands were granted to Henry de Lacy, Earl of Lincoln, who began to build a new walled town, colonised by immigrants from England, protected by a substantial castle and surrounded by deer parks for hunting. The work had not been completed by 1294, when the Welsh temporarily seized the castle during the Madog ap Llywelyn revolt. The defences continued to be improved, although the castle was not completely finished by the time of Henry's death in 1311.

Ruthin Historic Town

Highlight • Historical Site

A lovely small town with a couple of spots to stop on the bike (pubs and cafes). Undulating terrain so make sure you're leaving the right way to avoid having to come back up the road you've just cycled down!
