Caerphilly Castle History photo copyrighted by: Brian McMorrow The Castle's role in the Civil War is far from clear.
Reputedly, its massive medieval defences were damaged
by gunpowder, but there is no evidence to support this.
To the right of the entrance to the castle is the northern dam, a narrower platform with a high outer wall with three great towers (below right) which are now unfortunately suffering from subsidence on the marshy ground.
