AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE : Check out this amazing first person view (FPV) video of one of the most famous Welsh fortresses, compliments of contributor and FPV pilot Droneruk. Caernarfon Castle situated in County Gwynedd in the northwestern part of Wales. The current structure dates to the late 13th century, and was part of a system of fortresses built by England's King Edward I as part of his campaign to pacify Wales. The castle later played an important role in the English Civil War which raged in the mid-17th century.

For those interested, a bit of History... Caernarfon Castle. (Welsh: Castell Caernarfon), often anglicized as Carnarvon Castle, is a medieval fortress in Caernarfon, Gwynedd, north-west Wales. There was a motte-and-bailey castle in the town of Caernarfon from the late 11th century until 1283 when King Edward I of England began replacing it with the current stone structure. The Edwardian town and castle acted as the administrative centre of north Wales and as a result the defences were built on a grand scale. There was a deliberate link with Caernarfon's Roman past and the Roman fort of Segontium is nearby. Atcham Bridge In 1550 Sir Rowland Hill built a stone bridge with 18 arches, subsequently replaced by the present bridge which dates from 1769-71 and was designed by John Gwynne. The bridge was originally built to carry the road that would become the A5 over the River Severn. It was designed by John Gwynn and built between 1769 and 1771, at the expense of the County of Shropshire. St Eata, Atcham Church. The first church to St Eata is said to have been built in the eighth century but there is no longer any trace of this. A church was present on the site by 1075, the chronicler Orderic Vitalis being baptised there on the Easter Day of that year.The oldest part of the present church is in the nave and dates from the late Saxon or the early Norman era. The tower is probably from the 12th century, and the chancel from the late 13th century. The south porch is dated 1665. The church was restored in the late 19th century. My setups!
