Harlech Castle was the last Lancastrian stronghold in Wales and one of the last in Britain. It held out for seven years after Towton. When William Herbert finally took it in 1468, the song Men of Harlech is said to have been written in honour of its defenders. Harlech may have been the longest castle siege of the entire Wars of the Roses.
