Come back Dougie.

Where's this? Not sure, but might not be in Ashton, but does have a connection close by. :)

Re: Come back Dougie.

That would be the castle in Angers (twinned with Wigan).

Re: Come back Dougie.

It would be nice if we had a castle like that in our Town. It looks a bit like the interior of Beaumaris Castle (not the outside of Beaumaris where the moat is).

I wonder if the original Bryn Hall looked like a castle as it is described as being on a mound with a moat.

Re: Come back Dougie.

Well done, Dan. Spot on. Angers for some reason is twinned with Wigan.

Anyone know why, as to be honest they are nothing alike?

I wonder if Angers has a twinned with Wigan sign up. :D

I somehow doubt it.
