Think you know your history? 📜
Heiress, poet, philanthropist and formidable chatelaine, this week’s mystery figure devoted much of her life - and fortune - to Wales. From bardic honours and precious jewels to wartime hospitals and a rather unhappy marriage, hers is quite the story.
And according to legend, it didn’t entirely end with her death…
Follow the clues, swipe to the end, and see if you can work out who she is. Think you know? Tell us in the comments. ✍🏼
And for those who’d like to experience her former home after dark…
On Saturday 12th September, Gwrych Castle will host Candlelit Comedy, with an atmospheric evening of live comedy within the castle walls.
After the show, ticket holders are invited to join an exclusive after-hours tour of the castle. Discover the remarkable restoration now underway, step into parts of the grounds after dark, and hear some of Gwrych’s spookier stories as night falls - perhaps even the tale of our mystery lady’s own ghost, said to still haunt the castle after the sale of her beloved belongings. 👻
A unique chance to enjoy candlelit comedy followed by a private evening experience at one of Wales’s most atmospheric castles. 🕯️🏰
