In the distance is a large building, most probably the Castle of Brecknock, built by the half-brother of William the Conqueror, within 25 years of the Norman Conquest. The ruin features the earliest style of Norman architecture and was later enlarged by the de Braose family, Norman overlords who succeeded Bernard de Neufmarche and ruled the Welsh for nearly a century.
