What is recorded here
Castle Green House stands inside the ancient walls of Cardigan Castle, built between 1805 and 1808 by John Bowen. The residence later fell into disrepair after being occupied by Barbara Wood and her mother, creating a ghostly contrast between the sturdy medieval stone and the decaying domestic interior. This layered structure captures the transition from a military stronghold to a private dwelling, preserving the quiet tension of human life within a historic fortress.
