Llangibby Motte and Castle is a historic site located in Newport, Wales. The castle is believed to have been built in the 12th century by the Normans, and it served as a stronghold for many years. The castle was constructed on top of a large mound, which is known as the motte. The motte is approximately 40 feet high and provides an excellent vantage point over the surrounding area.
The castle itself was built using local stone and features a square keep, which is still standing today. The castle was expanded over the years, and additional buildings were added to the site. The castle was also surrounded by a moat, which provided additional protection.
Llangibby Motte and Castle played an important role in the history of Wales. It was the site of many battles and sieges, and it was also used as a prison at one point. The castle was eventually abandoned in the 16th century, and it fell into disrepair.
Today, Llangibby Motte and Castle is a popular tourist attraction. Visitors can explore the castle ruins and climb to the top of the motte for stunning views of the surrounding countryside. The site is also home to a small museum, which features exhibits on the history of the castle and the surrounding area.
Overall, Llangibby Motte and Castle is a fascinating glimpse into the history of Wales. Its impressive architecture and rich history make it a must-see destination for anyone visiting Newport.
