Dyma\u2019r cynharaf o gestyll Cymru a godwyd gan y Saeson.<\/p>\n

Mae\u2019r rhai sy\u2019n hoff o bensaern\u00efaeth filwrol yn anelu\u2019n syth am y Fflint. Dyma\u2019r castell cyntaf i\u2019w sefydlu fel rhan o ymgyrch Edward I yn erbyn Llywelyn ap Gruffydd yng Ngogledd Cymru, ac mae ganddo gynllun unigryw ac anarferol o soffistigedig. Cychwynnwyd arno ym 1277 a\u2019i gwblhau i raddau helaeth erbyn 1284 a cheir t\u0175r mawr neu ddwnjwn) yng nghornel y de ddwyrain. Gan fod ffos yn ei amgylchynu a mynediad iddo dros bont godi, mewn gwirionedd, mae\u2019n gastell o fewn castell. Fe\u2019i hadeiladwyd a waliau eithriadol o drwchus ac mae\u2019n llawn o\u2019r cyfleusterau angenrheidiol i wrthsefyll ymosodiad, ac mae\u2019n debyg mai\u2019r fan hon fyddai\u2019r lloches olaf pe doi ymosodiad.<\/p>\n

Mae Castell y Fflint yn enwog hefyd oherwydd mai dyma leoliad y cyfarfyddiad tyngedfennol yn 1399 rhwng Richard II a gelyn i\u2019r goron Henry Bolingbroke (ddaeth yn Henry IV yn ddiweddarach) \u2013 digwyddiad sydd wedi ei anfarwoli yn Richard II gan Shakespeare..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
