A 15th-century fortified manor house.
Gwydir Castle is in the Conwy valley, Wales, a mile west of the market town of Llanrwst and 1.5 miles (2.4 km) south of the large village of Trefriw. An example of a fortified manor house dating back to c. 1500, it is located on the edge of the floodplain of the river Conwy, and overlooked from the west by the slopes of Gwydir Forest.

The church was built in the late 15th century, possibly in the 1470s replacing the first church on this site which was erected about 1170 and partly destroyed by fire when Llanrwst was sacked by Owain Glyndwyr. The Gwydir Chapel was added in 1633–34 by Richard Wynn of Gwydir. The west tower was added in the early 19th century, replacing a bellcote.
