	Skenfrith Castle
		What we see today at Skenfrith Castle was constructed by another Norman lord, Hubert de Burgh, a structure composed of a four-sided curtain wall (with its towers) and the fascinating round keep which dominates the interior.
		Today, the best-preserved portion of Skenfrith's moat is located on the eastern face of the castle, farthest from the parking area, which can be reached from outside the castle.
		Skenfrith's charm is its round keep, which immediately grasps your attention as you cross the footbridge and through the main gateway.

		Skenfrith Castle, Herefordshire is located at National Grid Reference: SO 45766 / 20325, a little over ten miles west of Ross-on-Wye and a short distance north of Monmouth.
		If your interest is in castles, it is definitely worth taking time out for a visit, however the castle is not as well preserved as those which can be found at Goodrich or Raglan.
		The top eight show the castle as it is, however the bottom two were taken for 'artistic effect' (artistic words for 'trial and error') using an Olympus E-10 camera, 62 mm polarizing filter, exposure 1/640 second at f:11.

		Together with Grosmont and Skenfrith, White Castle was one of the 'Three Castles of Gwent' - a triangle of fortresses within 5 miles of one another that protected the border against the Welsh.

		Skenfrith Castle, along with White and Grosmont, is one of three castles built to protect one of the main routes through the border region between England and South Wales.
		He built modern stone castles at Grosmont and Skenfrith, but unlike at Grosmont where the shape and size of the castle was dictated by the old mound on which it was built, at Skenfrith the site was levelled and an entirely new castle was constructed.
		Although all three castles were maintained by the Lancasters, only Grosmont was used as a home and further developed, leaving Skenfrith Castle pretty much as Hubert built it.

	Skenfrith - Muppet Wiki
		Skenfrith is a magical creature who changes his appearance and voice based on others' opinions of what he is. He is found by Red and Wembley in the Gorgs' garden.
		He receives his name from Red, who also tells him that he has pigtails and likes to swim, among other things; as she creates this persona for Skenfrith, he promptly adopts her beliefs as his own characteristics.
		His changes only become a problem when the Gorgs believe he is a monster, and he complies.

	Three Welsh Castles - South Wales
		The Monnow Valley forms a natural break in defences along this Southern Welsh Border, with open pastoral country, woods and hills, so the Normans built three castles in a triangle to guard the routes between Herefordshire and Wales.
		We visited all three castles in one day and they are Grosmont, Skenfrith and most notably the White Castle.
		Another sunny June day visiting these castles, this castle isn't far from the village of Grosmont itself on the B4347, about 3 miles southwards from the A465 junction at Pontrilas on the border of Wales and England.
