Cilgerran is one of the most spectacularly sited castles in Wales. Its two great round towers loom high above the deep gorge of the River Teifi and the fast-flowing stream of the Plysog.
The perfect spot, you might have thought, from which the invading Anglo-Normans could defend their newly conquered lands. Take the thrilling wall-walk from the east tower to understand just what a daunting obstacle it must have presented to the rulers of the ancient kingdom of Deheubarth. But it wasn’t quite impregnable enough.
Safle Castell Cilgerran yw un o’r mwyaf ysblennydd yng Nghymru. Daw ei ddau dŵr crwn mawr i’r amlwg fry uwchben ceunant dwfn Afon Teifi a nant gyflym Plysgog.
Hawdd fuasai meddwl mai hwn oedd y llecyn perffaith i’r Eingl-Normaniaid amddiffyn y tiroedd yr oeddent newydd eu goresgyn. Cerddwch y llwybr gwefreiddiol ar hyd y wal o’r tŵr dwyreiniol i ddeall yn union mor frawychus oedd y lle, mae’n rhaid, i rwystro llywodraethwyr teyrnas hynafol Deheubarth. Ond nid oedd yn ddigon cadarn, wedi’r cyfan.
