Morlais Castle
Wales
Morlais Castle's hilltop ruins overlook Merthyr Tydfil from the Brecon Beacons foothills. Take the A470 to Merthyr, then the A4054 Brecon Road before minor roads to the site. The medieval fortress controlled mountain passes but was never finished, leaving only foundations and earthworks that hint at what might have been a formidable Welsh border stronghold.
