Bodysgallen Hall
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bodysgallen Hall is a manor house in north Wales near the village of Llanrhos. This listed historical building derives primarily from the 17th century, and has several later additions. Bodysgallen was constructed as a tower house in the Middle Ages to serve as defensive support for nearby Conwy Castle. The site of Bodysgallen was the fifth century AD stronghold of Cadwallon Lawhir, King of Gwynedd[1], who had wide ranging exploits as far as Northumberland.
