Grab a key (literally) and discover the secrets of Denbigh, a forgotten corner of North Wales

Angela Epstein finds Denbigh has 'a story on every corner'  The town has more listed buildings than any other town in Wales, she reveals READ MORE: We pit a Toby Carvery Sunday roast against a Michelin-starred version

You don't have to look far to spot a castle in Wales – with more than 600 scattered around. it has more land area per square kilometer than anywhere else in the world.

But while Hogwarts-style monuments such as Caernarfon endure on the heritage scene worldwide, why not do it? Don't we know as much about everyone else?

It quickly becomes apparent during our visit to Denbigh that the lack of recognition of its castle n It's not something serious. the locals are particularly interested.

'It's our castle, that's all that matters', a guy tells us as we climb the hill to visit this weather-beaten ruin.

This feeling of warmth is evident throughout our visit to this quiet corner of North Wales, in the green valley and heather fields of the Vale of Clwyd.
