The castle formed an important part in the Welsh Baronial wars, changing hands often from Wesh Prince to Prince. Simon de Montfort and Owen ap Jorworth along with the de Clares all held the Castle, but as the strength of the the great families of the time was weak and estates far reaching, mobility was the key to survival and only small garrisons could be left for defence. After all, food stocks were limited and large families had to move on to other houses and castles once supplies ran low.
