Rhuddlan

From Welshpedia

Rhuddlan is a town in Denbighshire, Wales, lying on the River Clwyd. It is effectively a suburb of Rhyl. The town gave its name to the Welsh Rhuddlan district from 1974 to 1996.

The town is known for the ruins of Rhuddlan Castle, built by Edward I of England from 1277 to 1282 and the site of another castle at Twt Hill.

The town was also the location where Edward I signed the Statute of Rhuddlan, laying down the way by which Wales was to be governed.
