#HillfortsWednesday The supreme landscape position occupied by the stunning Pen y Bannau hillfort near Strata Florida, #Ceredigion , as seen from the lowlands.
The hillfort is built around a craggy outcrop with its stepped facade ramparts at left, & the interior to the right.
#HillfortsWednesday Castell Henllys, a reconstructed Iron Age village/fort, but the only one in Britain built on an original Celtic site. So the idea is that you walk in the footsteps of the Demetae tribe that lived there 2,000 or so years ago. How cool is that? #Pembrokeshire
