Translated, the name mean City of the Crows which is appropriate as its location gives dramatic views over Llangollen and the Dee Valley
It's a challenging but popular walk to reach the ruins and summit
The ruins have been a tourist attraction for decades. In fact, a café once stood on the site in the 1920s
Today, the castle is an ancient monument managed by Denbighshire County Council
