What is recorded here

North of Deganwy Castle, raised earth and buried timber mark a Post Medieval and Medieval enclosure where human hands shaped the land before stone. The works may have guarded a gate, stored grain or excluded herds, yet their true purpose has faded. What remains is a ridge of soil and memory, waiting for someone to walk it and imagine the lives that pressed it into form.

The National Monuments Record of Wales records Earthworks of Building and Enclosure North of Deganwy Castle as Earthwork; Earthwork from the Post Medieval; 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 earthworks north of Deganwy Castle are associated with the medieval defenses of the castle, which was originally built by Robert of Rhuddlan in the late 13th century as part of Edward I's conquest of Wales. The site is historically significant as it reflects the strategic military architecture of the late medieval period in north Wales.
