Those who go to the ticket office in their local school uniform after 3pm on term-time weekdays will not be charged.

It's open daily until 5pm, with last admissions at 4.30pm. Entry for children under five continues to be free during all opening hours.

The castle is managed by Swansea Council and jointly managed by Friends of Oystermouth Castle. The free entry offer runs until schools break up for the summer holidays and then from the end of the holidays to the end of September.

Council cabinet member Robert Francis-Davies said: "This is a great offer for parents and grandparents picking up the children from school and looking for something low-cost, entertaining, fun and educational."

Adults accompanying the children will pay just £2 entry.

Oystermouth Castle towers over the Mumbles seafront, with views over Swansea Bay. It's open daily at present from 11am-5pm and at weekends in October.
