Taken by talented photographer Damian Grady in 2016, this print showcases the remarkable earthwork that has stood the test of time. The image transports us back to an era where castles were not just fortifications but symbols of power and grandeur. The intricate design of Mynydd-Brith's motte and bailey structure is evident from above, with its imposing mound rising majestically against the backdrop of lush greenery. The circular shape of the bailey encloses a courtyard surrounded by protective walls, offering a glimpse into medieval life within these fortified walls.

From afar, we witness how nature has intertwined itself with history as trees gracefully embrace ancient stone structures. This photograph serves as a reminder that even though centuries have passed since its construction, Mynydd-Brith still stands proudly today—a testament to human ingenuity and resilience throughout history.
