About this book
The Hawarden Visitors' Hand-Book is credited to W. H. Gladstone. The regulations as to Hawarden Park and Old Castle say that visitors are allowed to use the Gravel Drives through the Park and Wood between Noon and Sunset, and that dogs are not admitted. The text says that in Doomsday Book, Hawarden appears as a Lordship, with a church and two ploughlands.
The text says no Welsh is spoken in Hawarden. A passage on the name says it is pretty clearly derived from the Welsh Din or Dinas, castle on a hill. The text says the Church has a central tower containing six bells. A note says Dante is one of the four authors to whom Mr. Gladstone attributes the greatest formative influence on his own mind, the other three being Aristotle, Bishop Butler, and S. Augustine.
