Around Dunraven Castle in Wales

 

This famous landmark overlooked Southerndown beach on the Glamorgan coast until the 1960s

Originally the site of an Iron Age hillfort, Dunraven became the location for a series of houses.

Tragic stories abound about the Vaughan family who once lived there, and the ghost of the Blue Lady.

The fortified mansion built by the Wyndham family in 1803 became known as Dunraven Castle due to its grand castellations.

The building was used as a convalescent hospital during World Wars I and II, and later as a Workers Tourist Authority guest house before being demolished in 1963.

Although long gone, Dunraven Castle is remembered by many as a local landmark, and its walled garden still exists.

The spectacular cliffs and beach at Southerndown and Dunraven Bay have been used as locations for Doctor Who and other TV programmes.

Early morning in Wales

 

At sunrise, the blue sky paints herself with gold colors and joyfully dances to the music of a morning breeze.
