Newport Castle, Newport, South Wales: A Glimpse into the Past This evocative lantern slide image transports us back in time to the medieval Newport Castle in South Wales, nestled at the foot of Carn Ingli. Founded by Martin de Turribus, the first Lord Marcher of Kemes in 1191, this historic castle has stood the test of time for over eight centuries. The castle, now a private residence, is a testament to the rich heritage and history of Wales. Its rugged stone walls, weathered by the elements, tell tales of the past as they reach out towards the sky. The castle's towering turrets, once used for defensive purposes, now stand as silent sentinels, guarding the picturesque town of Newport. The castle's grandeur is further accentuated by the rolling hills and lush greenery that surround it. The foothills of Carn Ingli, with their undulating terrain, add to the castle's mystique, creating a breathtaking and idyllic setting. This image, captured in the 1910s, offers a rare glimpse into the past. The absence of modern structures and the use of a lantern slide add to the nostalgic feel, transporting us back to a time when life moved at a slower pace. The castle, with its rich history and timeless beauty, continues to be a source of inspiration and fascination for history enthusiasts and visitors alike. Newport Castle, with its intriguing past and stunning location, remains a proud symbol of Wales' medieval heritage. Its enduring presence serves as a reminder of the country's rich history and the importance of preserving it for future generations.
