Wiston must rank as one of the best-preserved motte and bailey castles in
Wales. It was named after, and probably built by, an early Flemish
settler with the improbable name of Wizo (in Latin) or Gwys (welsh). Wizo
was dead by 1130, but the castle is first mentioned in documents in 1147
when it was taken by the Welsh. It was again taken by the Welsh in 1193,
when it fell, apparently with the aid of treachery, to Hywel Sais, the
son of the LordRhys, but was recaptured in 1195. In 1220, however, it
was captured by Llywelyn the Great, prince of Gwynedd, during one of his
campaigns in south Wales.The local people were told to help William
Marshal, earl of Pembroke, to rebuild it. Whether or not this rebuilding
took place is uncertain. The masonry shell-keep could be his work, but
the style of the arch suggests an earlier date, and it is quite possible
that the fallen masonry which still lies on thenorth was brought down
during Llywelyn's attack.
