A TOUR ROUND NORTH WALES. 37 



fefted by the owner, Sir William Glynne, 

 between the years 1665 and 1678.* 



Having pafTed a bridge a little beyond 

 the ninth mile-flone from Chefter, I turned 

 on the right over fome meadows, in fearch 

 of a fmall fortrefs I had heard of, called 

 Euloe Caftle. It {lands about a quarter of 

 a mile from the road, and from it's fituation 

 on the edge of a glen, and furrounded by 

 wood, I had fome difficulty in finding it. 

 It has confifted of two parts ; the larger of 

 which has been an oblong tower rounded 

 at one end, and about fourteen yards long, 

 and ten or twelve in width, guarded on the 

 accerfible part by a ftrong wall. The other 

 part confifts of an oblong court, at the ex- 

 tremity of which are the remains of a circu- 

 lar tower. This fortrefs has been well de- 

 fended j on one fide by a trench, and on the 

 Other by the deep valley that runs beneath it.
