Skenfrith Castle

A small ruined castle on the banks of the Monnow, with a round keep on its mound and walls you can walk right up to. It is open in daylight hours and costs nothing. The village has a lovely old bridge and a riverside pub, so it makes an easy lunch stop on the Monmouthshire border loop.
