Fifty people turned up on September 1st to view Ruperra Castle from the footpaths!
We toasted the historic setting of the castle in pear cider (Ruperra = Rhiw 'r perrau the hill of rear trees) from the field to the south of the castle and then went for tea and cakes n the barn at Ruperra Home Farm. "The nicest cakes we've ever tasted!!"
