After Llansteffan we passed Carmarthen and headed for Kidwelly (Carmarthen isn't covered by CADW)and initially the sun stayed with us.
In its final form it's a classic concentric design
But the weather deteriorated, with the wind picking up and hail showers folowed
Still a site worth visiting
The outer wall
An imposing gatehouse
The important part, the tea shop built into the old city gate that served an excellent Cawl, just the job for a cold day.

Never been there, but it looks a good day out, Will!
Another beauty, it funny - these old ruined castles seem to give one a better sense of what went into them and what they could 'do' than the whole ones where it's all hidden by a top-coat of dressed stone...
To paraphrase Mr. Kurtz - badly!
"The Walls! The Walls!"
