SIX film location sites in North West Wales are said to have been earmarked for season three of HBO's House of The Dragon (HoTD). Some were used in summer 2023; others are new.

Three large sets are already taking shape at Dinorwig Quarry near Llanberis, which in season two served as an HoTD backdrop for Harrenhal Castle, the largest fortification in Westeros.

Props assembled so far suggest the after math of a visit by a fire-breathing dragon to the Harrenhal battle camp in the Riverlands.

Natural Resources Wales (NRW) has hinted of more filming at Traeth Llanddwyn and Newborough Forest in Anglesey, where some trees are being felled.

According to a source close to the production team, film crews will also be returning to Penmon in Anglesey.
