While the people of Wales can certainly be credited with spicing up the great nation's history, what is more synonymous with this green and pleasant land than a bloody good castle.
And where better to start than with the banger of the 1830's that is "Men of Harlech" and the castle that inspired it. Come with us and hear why this diva of a fortress was worth singing about.
