    I'm in the process of writing a novel that has a scene at Oystermouth Castle (one of my favorite landmarks in Wales). Really appreciate this video. Love the narration.

    Thank you for this history. I was surprised to learn that Alina was my 27th great-grandaunt. Family drama never ceases, but ours was nothing like hers, thankfully.
    RIP, auntie.❤

    Thats tragic that her husband was killed and she was imprisoned for something her father caused. Did anything happen to her father because of all this? Im glad she found happiness in the end but what a pity it was short-lived.

    Thanks for the interesting story on the De Braose family i never knew about this part, i have read about Maud De Braose in the time of king John , it would seem they had there battles with anyone near the king or even a king himself.

    If I visited that castle now that I know her story I think I would feel bound to 'talk' to Alena hoping she could hear me ! Not a ghost I would be fearful of! What a very sad business, she did not deserve, but in the end at least she had a few years of happiness & freedom. Rest easy Alena!

      @@EvelynEdwards Hi thank you for that...what a very different time, I would never understand this. Canon Law must never have acknowledged the existence or notion of children. Maybe the bubonic plague as history tells it, was still looming, a decimated population, who knows how and why they rationalised such decisions.
