What is recorded here

Bothy House and The Estate Office, Powis Castle is a castle, fort or tower in Powys, Wales. Perhaps workers sheltered there during storms while managing the estate lands. Maybe the building still holds the scent of wet wool and wood smoke. Imagine a keeper lighting a lamp as rain hammers the roof, waiting for the storm to pass.

Built as part of the Powis Castle estate in the 18th century, Bothy House and The Estate Office were likely constructed by the Herbert family, who held Powis Castle from the 13th century. They are remembered as part of the extensive and historically significant estate managed by one of Wales's most prominent noble families.
