Oystermouth Castle

It wouldn't be Wales without a castle, and sure enough the trendy shops and bars of Newton Rd are guarded broodingly by a majestic ruin – appreciable from outside at the time of research but closed within due to maintenance work. When it's open, there's a fine view over Swansea Bay from the battlements.
