Taken from the Castle Hill looking out toward Simi. There are the remains of an old castle on the hill top.

The backdrop to the battle re-enactments was Margam Castle, which was commissioned by Christopher Rice Mansel Talbot (1803-1890) and was constructed over a ten-year period from 1830 to 1840.
