Mars and Sun Statues on Cardiff Castle Clock Tower

Mars and Sun Statues on Cardiff Castle Clock Tower

A close up of the Mars and Sol / Sun statues on one side of Cardiff castle's clock tower. Cardiff has had a castle since at least Norman times and the 11th century motte and bailey keep still stands inside the more recent walls and buildings. The Bute family owned the castle and much of the surrounding area from the mid 18th to mid 20th centuries. Construction of the clock tower started in 1868, part of major enlargements in the Gothic Revival style commissioned by the 3rd Marquess of Bute.
