What is recorded here

Craig-yr-Haul is a Post Medieval country house garden in Castleton, Newport, Wales. It is not a ruined castle or public park, but a shaped garden belonging to a house. That distinction matters because gardens reveal how people wanted to control nature, enjoy nature, or hide behind it. The name suggests a place set apart, perhaps proud, where leisure and ownership became visible in soil and stone.

The National Monuments Record of Wales records Craig-yr-Haul, Garden, Castleton as Country House Garden from the Post Medieval period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
