Llowes Castle Tump is a Norman motte-and-bailey castle in Powys, built after the 1081 invasion of Wales. Earth from a surrounding ditch and timber from nearby woods formed its defences, while the nearby settlement of Llanigon grew around an older church. The mound still stands where human ambition, faith and fear first tangled together.
