Ogmore Castle, South Wales - A Look Around The Castle Ruins
A look at the substantial ruins of Ogmore Castle in South Wales. It sits next to the River Ewenny near the Ogmore by Sea and not that far from the town of Bridgend.
And in this video I’ve actually done some research and there are some facts!
Ogmore castle was first established in the early 12th century by William de Londres. The initial wooden structure was soon replaced with a stone castle. An upper story was added in the 13th century.
The castle is surrounded by a deep rock cut ditch which only fills with water when the nearby River Ewenny floods. The stepping stones across the river which are a scheduled ancient monument.
Within the bailey of the castle is a courthouse building which was in use until the 17th century.
The castle is officially open from 10 am to 4pm and is free to get in, it is unmanned so you can actually access the grounds at anytime.
There is a small carpark by the river but they do lock the gate in the evening, also check the tide times as this car park does flood during high tides.
Ogmore Castle near Bridgend is is just one of the 600 castles that are in Wales. Yes, there are a LOT of castles. #Wales

Ballygally Castle Hotel with its Haunted Rooms - NI
This haunted hotel is possibly one of the most haunted places in the world or at least in UK and it has a very scary story - this part of the hotel is closed to guests staying - but you can visit the tower where the ghost room is and see how the story unfolded. The haunted building has not been touched in the recent upgrades of the hotel - leaving the ghost room as it was.
The haunted hotel is an attraction for ghost hunters and guests have told of ghost screams. The hotel itself is in a beautiful sea side location and it is a fabulous hotel - thankfully the haunted room is slightly separated from the rest of the hotel. You have to go up a round tower to the top and into the tiny rooms and you get a feeling for what it was like to be locked in there. If tempted - do check out this Haunted Hotel in the UK (Ballygally just outside Belfast - Northern Ireland).
For those who might not be well aware of Ballygally Hotel - of the Haunted Hotel as it might be referred to - it is an old castle that has been turned to a hotel and is located in the village of Ballygally in county Antrim, Northern Ireland, and even though it is more known as a hotel, people still visit it - or the tower - in order to check those haunted rooms which are found there and which are separated from the hotel itself.
There are different things that make this castle a different experience - that's of course apart from experiencing the feeling of the ghosts :-) - such as its location; Ballygally Castle overlooks the sea on the Ballygally Bay. The castle is strongly Scots influenced in style featuring corbelled cylindrical tourelles with conical roofs on top. The castle was built with high walls, steep roof, dormer windows and corner turrets; the walls are five feet thick with loopholes for muskets and a water stream used to ran through the outer hall to provide water in the case of siege.
This is one of the different and rare experiences that we have been through while visiting a castle or a hotel, but actually a lot of people agree on the fact that it is one place which they love to visit for the idea of being referred to as haunted and for the fact that the visit paid for it is actually different - not just an old thing to watch and go through.
Since it is now used as a hotel, the Ballygally Castle is one of the oldest 17th century buildings in Northern Ireland that is still used until these days as a residence and is also believed to be one of the best haunted places in Ulster.
The Haunted Castle; a lot of people are asking why it has been given that name. Being considered a haunted place goes back to the ghosts which are believed to be living in the place with the most active of them all is known as Lady Isobel Shaw who used to knock on the doors of the rooms and disappear - yes, it would be scary to be staying at a room like that - this lady was reported to die after throwing herself from the window when her husband locked her in the room and left her starving. Another famous ghost in this castle is called Madame Nixon who used to live in the castle in the 19th century and who could be heard walking around the place in her silk dress.
The question we keep asking ourselves is is it possible that people could think about booking a room in this hotel or castle if they know that it is known as the haunted hotel and is believed to have ghosts living in it? and we never knew whether the answer would end up being a yes or else will be a no.
There are different stories reported about this hotel which are related to guests seeing ghosts or feeling them and running to the lobby in fright and those which are related to finding rooms in a mess after getting them prepared for guests. The most important thing to mention and the one thing we consider the most important is the small room in the corner turret of the castle which is known as the Ghost Room and which is closed and not part of the hotel.
It is interesting to get to this castle - or hotel - and reach the room through this tower to see those pictures and stories written on the wall about the history of the place when it comes to those stories related to the ghosts, but we didn't try to sleep in the hotel to tell you about any other kind of experience there!
There are other different trips we have made to Ballygally before which will be considered close to the Ballygally Hotel - the Haunted Hotel - which include the Ballygally and Ballintoy trip ( We have also visited this hotel before to check one of the doors that appeared in the Game of Thrones movie ( and we also enjoyed the Ballygally Beach which is near the castle (
Are you up to such an experience with some ghosts in it?

Llyn Cowlyd lake & pipeline, Snowdonia National Park, North Wales
Following the dirt tracks all the way down the reservoir.. we are greeted by a large 2m diameter water pipeline cutting across the valley.
We press on until as the track turns into gravel.. eventually coming to a locked gate. It's on foot from here.

Secret Bunker in Aberystwyth
During World War 2 the government decided important artefacts should be stored safely away from London. A bunker was dug under the National Library of Wales, Aberystwyth, and items such as the Magna Carta were stored there. Local wags claim the Crown Jewels were stored there, but that has always been officially denied.
The bunker is located off Llanbadarn Road.
Photographs of inside the bunker can be seen here -

H-R-D Special 275th Video!!!!!!!! A4 Bash to Wales 27/7/2014
Hello and welcome to this special addition of Harnetty Railways as this is the 275th video of my youtube channel.
Coming up in this special program
We travel from Liverpool to Holyhead on The North Wales Coast Express.
We start at Liverpool were diesels top an tail start the day with wcrc 37 37518 and 47 47245 running to train to Crewe via Runcorn.
Diesels would take the train as far as Crewe were John Cameron's A4 pacific 60009 Union of South Africa would take over for the run to Holyhead via the Chester line.
The draper family's black 5 45305 Alderman A.E Draper was booked down for this trip but unfortunately its currently trapped at The Keithley and Worth Valley Railway due to the steam ban in the Yorkshire area and so 60009 was the only mainline loco at Crewe available so number 9 stepped in.
Soon it was time to go and we departed Crewe for Holyhead and 60009 departed for his first visit to Holyhead for 2 years since 2012.
Soon we arrived at chester despite running late. We departed from Chester as we followed a Arriva train despite that we had a gd run along the coast in awesome sunny conditions.
Soon we arrived at Llandudno Junction were this would be the first of 2 splash and dash stops for water its would take some on water before doing the top an tail run with the 47 to Llandudno and back to the junction were the number 9 would take on more water before heading off to Holyhead which we arrived bang on time.
At holyhead the loco would uncouple and head off to the triangle to get turned and serviced ready for the return run back to Crewe.
Soon the heavens opened at Holyhead as 60009 returned after been turned but it was much welcomed rain for all enthusiasts especially the steam operators such as west coast rail.
Soon it was time to leave Holyhead to head back to Crewe we departed bang on time and 60009 put in a marvelous performance all the way back. I did not do much filming caz of the poor weather.
I do apologize for my finger on the lens as i was trying to clear the water away from it while on the move.
Soon we arrived back at Crewe arriving 3 mins early our final shots of 60009 was been uncoupled from the train and heading off for turning before heading back to Crewe Heritage Centre for a rest after a brilliant run.
To sum up it was a fantastic weekend behind the a4 as ya saw in my last video 60009 was in charge of the cme trip the previous day. This was the first time I bashed behind 60009 on a weekender for 2 years and this one in 2014 was a memorable day.
Thanks for reading enjoy the 275th video
The Restless Venture Live at PHABSTOCK
The Restless Venture are a four piece pop/rock band based in the North West of England. Their exciting brand of foot stomping, fist thumping songs are intertwined with heartfelt melodies, soulful interludes and soaring harmonies, guaranteed to rev the crowds engine every time.
The Restless Venture are THE BAND to keep an eye out for on the live scene in the UK and USA, with an ever increasing following and a track record of creating great music that entertains many music fans.
The fourth Phabstock charity Bank Holiday music festival on the prom at Llandudno was blessed by good weather and some outstanding musicians as it extended its programme to cover all three days.
Funded by local business and grants from the town council and the county council, the event was also supported by community organizations, notably Ty Llewellyn, Crest Cooperative and Gloddaeth United Church.
The event is organised by 'tvwales.co.uk', founded by Glyn Hughes, supported by filmmaker Rob Davies ( and this year was, supporting two local charities, PHAB who work with the disabled in the community and Hope Restored based at Gloddaeth United Church, who provide services for the homeless.
'tvwales.co.uk' fundraiser and event controller 'Roger Boon' said: There were 28 acts this year and it was the strongest programme we have put on so far. All the acts were well received and it is impossible to pick out the best. Of the bands however, there was no doubt that the 'Restless Venture' from Manchester, 'Midnight Runaway' from Shrewsbury and eighties band 'Flux' from Holyhead who closed the festival, were massively appreciated by the crowd as were 'Chicas' who garnered support from every age group.
There was something for everyone in a very varied programme including local choir Singsation from Abergele and even a service on the prom on the Sunday led by the youth band from local church, Emmanuel. One of the purposes of 'tvwales.co.uk' is to encourage the development of young talent and there were outstanding debuts from Sam 'Lyon' 'Joe Berry' 'Hannah Williams' as well as 11-year-old 'Jac Ellis Roberts' from Anglesey, by far the youngest ever artist to play at Phabstock.
The festival was formally opened by Llandudno mayor Carol Marubbi and not so formally by Town Cryer, Billy Baxter.
After the final gig the mayor closed the festival and the leaders of the two charities, Brenda Fogg of Hope Restored and Val Conway of Phab, made presentations to Roger Boon and Glyn Hughes for the work they put in to mounting the festival.
Roger and Glyn said: We would like to thank all the bands and artists who performed for free for such good causes.
The event raised over £3k for the two charities.
Founder of PHAB, Val Con-way, said: Phabstock is so well organized and just gets better and better each year. It was heart-warming to see so many volunteers helping and artists prepared to travel long distances to perform for free.

Inside the 10 spookiest buildings in the UK where castles overlook 'Satanic capitals'
Inside the 10 spookiest buildings in the UK where castles overlook 'Satanic capitals' and a disembodied face of a girl floats
From unexplained screams to flickering lights, ghosts and bodies disappearing through walls, they are the spine-chilling events we expect to see in horror movies .
Legends include tales of the disembodied face of a girl who drowned in a well at Carisbrooke Castle appearing regularly in the grounds in the Isle of Wight site to peer up at visitors, as well as a young stable boy seen running along what would have been the hayloft at Kenilworth Castle in Warwickshire.
At other castles the chilling beat of footsteps can be heard running above or rushing up staircases that lead to no where. While woe betide any visitors to Beeston Castle who try to cross the path of a woman in a rocking chair blocking the entrance, or those attempting to pass through cold areas in the middle of staircases at Whitby Abbey, the location which inspired Bram Stoker 's Dracula.
And while many can be confined to myths and tall tales, staff at Britain's historic sites have reported seeing ghostly goings on after they have shut for the night.
Using reports from workers and those looking round castles and historic sites, English Heritage has compiled a list of the 10 spookiest places in Britain, as well as crowned the scariest place overall.
The 10 spookiest places in the UK
1. Bolsover Castle, Derbyshire
Built on an ancient burial ground and overlooking a town once described as “the Satanic capital of Britain” – Bolsover Castle has earned the title of the nation's scariest castle. It was founded in the 11th century but largely neglected from the 14th century until Sir Charles Cavendish decided to build 'Little Castle' at the site in 1612.
2. Kenilworth Castle, Warwickshire
A red-brick medieval fortress, Kenilworth Castle was converted into an Elizabethan palace in 1563 after it was granted to Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester and favourite of Elizabeth I. It was first built in the 1120s and has been a royal castle throughout most of its history.
3. Carisbrooke Castle, Isle of Wight
When opening up the drum towers in the morning, the chilling sound of children’s laughter has often been heard by staff. The children, whose laughter moves around each room of the castle, have never shown themselves but some evenings staff wish them a good night.
4. Pendennis Castle, Cornwall
Built by Henry VIII to protect the Carrick Roads from invasion by France and Spain, in 1646 the castle was the site of a siege. Trapped inside for six months, supporters of the King were forced to eat their horses and dogs for survival before they eventually surrendered. The piercing screams of a kitchen maid who fell to her death whilst carrying food have been heard by visitors, as well as strange footsteps on a staircase that no longer leads anywhere.
5. Whitby Abbey, North Yorkshire
Perched high on a cliff, it's easy to see why the haunting remains of Whitby Abbey were inspiration for Bram Stoker's 'Dracula'. The Abbey itself is the ruin a Benedictine monastery, founded in the 11th century. It stands on the site of a much earlier monastery, dating back to 657 when it was founded by Hild, an Anglian princess.
6. Beeston Castle and Woodland Park, Cheshire
The castle, which sits 500 feet above Cheshire plain, was built in the 1220s but the inner part, which houses the accommodation was never completed.
7. Dover Castle, Kent
Dover has sheltered many thousands of lives within its walls over its long history. Henry II remodelled the site in the 1180s and ever since it has been adapted to meet the changing demands of war, its position giving it great strategic importance.
8. Framlingham Castle, Suffolk
The castle was built by a powerful Norman family in the 12th century and was under siege for two days in 1216. By the 14th century the castle was in the hands of Earls and Dukes of Norfolk, who held control of it for 400 years.
9. Clifford’s Tower, North Yorkshire
Clifford’s Tower is almost all that remains of York Castle built by William the Conqueror, and has served as a prison and a royal mint in its time. It has been a site of devastation and death, with York's Jewish community committing mass suicide in 1190 after being set upon by a mob and numerous revolts taking place after 1068 when it was first built.
10. Home of Charles Darwin – Down House, Kent
The former home of renowned scientist Charles Darwin has not been immune to strange goings on. A worker reported that when entering the study once and brushing past Darwin’s desk to close the shutters, a quill that lay on the desk suddenly stared spinning and wouldn’t cease until she left the room.
