QuoteThe start of £11m restoration work at 12th Century Cardigan Castle has been marked with a turf-cutting ceremony after 14 years' campaigning to save the site.

It will be developed into a centre for the community with a heritage centre and open air concert area.

The walls, buildings and gardens will also be restored, and there are plans to reopen the site in 2014.

It is believed to have been the birthplace of the eisteddfod in 1176.
