What is recorded here

Dovecote at Dinefwr Castle stands in Carmarthenshire as a Post Medieval structure, marked in the national record but not necessarily open to casual entry. It may have fed the castle kitchen or simply crowded the air with wings. Either way, it belongs to the living castle, not a dead museum.

The National Monuments Record of Wales records Dovecote at Dinefwr Castle as Dovecote 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 dovecote at Dinefwr Castle was built during the post-medieval period, likely by the Welsh noble family, the Princes of Deheubarth, who held the castle from the 11th to the 13th centuries. It is remembered as part of the historic estate of Dinefwr, the traditional seat of the Dinefwr branch of the Welsh royal family.
