Candleston Castle

Local nameCandleston Castle
LocationMerthyr Mawr, UK

Candleston Castle is a 14th-century fortified manor house, in ruins since the 19th century. It is .75 miles southwest of Merthyr Mawr, former Glamorgan, Wales, now Bridgend county borough and just .75 miles northwest of Ogmore Castle, separated by the River Ogmore. Candleston's original long and narrow rectangular structure lay across the western end of a low narrow promontory, suggesting a defensive position. The castle is believed to be named after the Norman family of Cantilupe, thought to be its first feudal tenants.
