This was and is a very special place. Dinas Emrys, the castle on the hill in the centre of a wild valley, is associated with sleeping dragons, with Vortigern and Merlin and Ambrosius, and from Branwen’s point of view, the ancient Druid college where she learned her art.

There are spectacular views in every direction from the top.
From this angle one is looking down over a steep cliff.
Signs of long gone fortifications.
