<p>Raglan Castle (Welsh: Castell Rhaglan) is a late medieval castle located just north of the village of Raglan in the county of Monmouthshire in south east Wales. The modern castle dates from between the 15th and early 17th centuries, when the successive ruling families of the Herberts and the Somersets created a luxurious, fortified castle, complete with a large hexagonal keep, known as the Great Tower or the Yellow Tower of Gwent. Surrounded by parkland, water gardens and terraces, the castle was considered by contemporaries to be the equal of any other in England or Wales.<br />

<p>South gate, moat and base of the Great Tower at Raglan Castle. Parliament caused the ruin here (and, depending on your outlook on recent events, one might add, "too").</p>

<p>Begun in the mid-15th century, Raglan Castle became a luxurious fortified residence surrounded by parks until 1646 when, during the English Civil War, Parliamentarian forces forced the surrender of the Royalist held castle. It was then 'slighted' to put it beyond any further military use, though the walls proved too strong for it to be destroyed completely. The owners recovered the property after the war, but declined to rebuild it. The ruins became a popular tourist attraction in the 18th century. In 1938 the owners entrusted the property to the governmental Department of the Environment, and it passed to the care of Cadw, the Welsh governmental body responsible for the environment in Wales.</p>
