What is recorded here
Hambury Wood and Castle Wood stand as managed woodland in Swansea, shaped since Medieval and Post Medieval times. The trees may have fed forges, hidden lovers, or simply resisted the city's hunger for land. People walked these paths long before roads appeared, reading danger and gift in the same shadows. The wood remembers more than it reveals.
