Beaumaris Castle

Beaumaris Castle: Beaumaris was the last of the great castles to be built by Edward I in North Wales, part of an "iron ring" of fortresses designed to stamp the English king's authority on the conquered Welsh population. The castle was never completed, with only a partial inner wall and gatehouse. Though because of its unfinished state, it was never damaged or slighted in the English Civil War, unlike many of its peers.
