English: Castell Pennard. There was a previous earth and wood ringwork castle here built early C12 which was superseded in late C13/early C14 by this stone castle. It commanded an excellent position on the edge of Pennard Pill and was matched by another on the opposite side of the valley, but the castle was inexpertly constructed for military defence. After only a hundred years or so it surrendered to a natural foe, the encroaching wind-borne sands. Legend tells that this was the result of the castle's Norman baron disrupting the revels of the Telwyth teg (fairy folk) down on the beach below.
