What is recorded here
Cyfarthfa Castle Railings stand in Merthyr Tydfil, Wales, built during the 19th Century when iron and ambition shaped the valley. They mark the boundary of a place where human hands bent metal into order. Whether they guarded a castle, a garden or a forgotten estate, they still hold the shape of that lost purpose.
The National Monuments Record of Wales records Cyfarthfa Castle Railings as Railings from the 19th Century period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Built in the 19th century, Cyfarthfa Castle Railings are associated with the industrialist William Crawshay II, who developed the surrounding Cyfarthfa ironworks and castle. They are remembered as an example of Victorian ornamental ironwork and the legacy of the Welsh iron industry.
