Aerial View Of Cardiff Castle
An aerial view of part of Cardiff castle, taken from the nearby Capital Tower high rise building in Greyfriars Street. Cardiff has had a castle since at least Norman times, this shot shows the 11th century motte and bailey keep inside the more recent walls and buildings. On the left is the Victorian Gothic revival mansion, built during major renovations by the Bute family who owned the castle and much of the surrounding area from the mid 18th to mid 20th centuries. The trees are in Bute Park on the western side of the castle.
