DisgrifiadBrawdy Castle is an enclosure set above the confluence of two streams, defined on the south and east by steep natural scarps, whilst about the north and west is a quadrant of three banks with intermediate ditches; the roughly triangular interior has a maximum depth of 48m, the defences occupying a band about 50m across.
An excavation, 1985-91, produced evidence for an involved sequence of occupation, Iron Age, Romano-British, and later.
