Gyrn Castle: Lodge, Gates and Gateway

Lodge

What is recorded here

Gyrn Castle: Lodge, Gates and Gateway stands in Flintshire, Wales, preserving a Post Medieval lodge marked by gates and a gateway. The name suggests a castle, but the surviving form is a lodge, perhaps a boundary marker for a larger estate now forgotten. Gates and gateway imply control of entry, exclusion, or ceremony. A person may have stood at that threshold, deciding who passed and who waited.
The National Monuments Record of Wales records Gyrn Castle: Lodge, Gates and Gateway as Lodge 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.
