Colwyn Bay, Rhos on Sea, Conwy County, Wales

Map of Bryn Euryn location

Bryn Euryn is a tree covered limestone hill overlooking Rhos on Sea, in Conwy County, North Wales. There are grand views of the Conwy Valley and the hills of Snowdonia to the west, and the Bay of Colwyn to the east. It also has great historical interest with Llys Euryn - a manor house dating from the 15th century - and a hilltop fort from the 6th century. The iron age hillfort, survives as ramparts, earthworks, and remains of a hut circle on the north and west sides of the hill. But you will need a good imagination to envisage the site as it was in the sixth century as time and nature have conspired to keep it well hidden below the undergrowth. There is much more to see of Llys Euryn however, and the site has been cleared and the walls protected by Cadw the Welsh heritage organisation. The picture was taken from the breakwater at Rhos on Sea Harbour.....
