What is recorded here

Caerhays Castle is a semi-castellated country house built between 1807 and 1810 by John Bettesworth-Trevanion with architect John Nash, overlooking Porthluney Cove in Cornwall. The estate passed through the Arundell, Trevanion and Williams families before John Charles Williams became a plantsman who filled the garden with new acquisitions, including seeds from China. The rough stone exterior resembles a Norman castle, while the garden holds a large collection of magnolias and an important mineral collection from Cornish mines.

The National Heritage List for England records Caerhays Castle as a registered park or garden at Grade II*. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
