A survey of the grounds of Glyndwr Castle in Wales may reveal lost buildings named in the writings of court poet Iolo Goch. Spencer Smith, a freelance archaeologist, may have discovered the foundations of a lost part of Glyndwr Castle, the estate of the last Welsh-born Prince of Wales, Owain Glyndwr.
