Morris Castle

Morris Castle is an old residental tower block in Swansea, south Wales which was built in the 18th Century from 1768 to 1774 for Sir John Morris to house the families of workers at his industrial enterprises and has been referred to as "possibly the first block of workers flats in the modern world".

It stands on top of a high hill near to Llewellyn Park and over looking Landore, where only 2 block towers facing each other remain. Many people from Swansea say it's the landmark of the area.
