At 6.6m high it is the largest motte and bailey in the National Park. The motte is 50m by 38m, with a flat summit of 24m by 16m, and the bailey (to the south west side of the motte) is 56m by 40m. The original footprint of the bailey platform was 115m long by 45m wide. Originally both motte and bailey were ditched and counterscarped, similar to other 12th and 13th century castles in Wales; however, the absence of stonework indicated the castle did not retain importance beyond this period.[4] Presently it is the best-preserved motte and bailey in Breconshire, and the oval tree-clad motte dominates the east end of the village. Village nameThe village takes its name from the old Motte and Bailey, whose original name was 'una villa nostra de Lliwel', although to this day Llywel is the name of the neighbouring hamlet, local parish and electoral ward. The local name Trecastle emerged by the end of the Medieval period, meaning "the town of the castle".[5] References1. ^http://www.castlewales.com/trecastl.html Some of the information contained in this article has been adapted from the [https://web.archive.org/web/20031006100240/http://www.castle-coaching-inn.co.uk/trecastle.html Castle Coaching Inn]'s website2. ^http://www.castlewales.com/trecastl.html 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.brecon-beacons.com/places-trecastle.htm |title=Archived copy |accessdate=2012-04-19 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20120420014245/http://www.brecon-beacons.com/places-trecastle.htm |archivedate=2012-04-20 |df= }} 4. ^'Castlefacts' website {{webarchive|url=https://archive.is/20130218005810/http://www.castlefacts.info/contentpages/castledetails/castledetails.asp?country=Wales&countyid=52&county=Brecknockshire&castleid=5112&latitude=51.9487&longitude=-3.6269&uin=20079 |date=2013-02-18 }} 5. ^coflein website: Trecastle motte 1 : Castles in Powys |
