What is recorded here

Conwy estuary, castle and bridge from RSPB reserve is a castle, fort or tower in Conwy, Wales. Perhaps the estuary breathes around the castle legs while the bridge spans the gap like a ribbon tied by human hands. Maybe herons lift off the reserve at dawn, carrying the shape of the place into other skies. Imagine standing where water, stone and air meet, and seeing the whole coastline rearrange itself around that point.

A named place photographed at this map point in Conwy.

Conwy Castle was built by Edward I of England between 1283 and 1287 as part of his campaign to subdue Wales. It is important as a prime example of medieval military architecture and a symbol of English dominance in Wales.
