Conwy, on the North Wales coast, had a population of around 4,000 at the 2021 census — a small walled town built entirely within a single decade of the 13th century.
A castle and town walls built in five years
Conwy Castle and the town's walls were built between 1283 and 1287 on the orders of Edward I, as part of a ring of fortresses raised to control North Wales after his conquest of the region. The walls run for around three-quarters of a mile and are studded with 21 towers, and together with the castle they're one of the most complete surviving examples of medieval military architecture in Europe.
The castle and walls are recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, grouped together with Edward's other great Welsh castles at Caernarfon, Beaumaris and Harlech.
What that history doesn't leave behind
Conwy's castle and walls didn't translate into a confectionery trade, and as a small town it doesn't have a dedicated sweet shop set up for bulk bags, vegan-specific ranges or halal-friendly lines — that's simply not the kind of retail a town this size tends to support locally.
