Country House Garden

What is recorded here

Hawarden Castle Garden in Flintshire, Wales, is a Post Medieval country house garden where the border between private memory and public wonder still blunts. The official record names the place but does not promise entry, so the garden may still resist easy seeing. That refusal is not a defect. It is the shape of a lived house, holding its own time and waiting for a person brave enough to notice the difference.
The National Monuments Record of Wales records Hawarden Castle Garden, Hawarden as Country House Garden 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.
Hawarden Castle Garden, located in Flintshire, was developed during the 17th and 18th centuries by the Earls of Powis, reflecting the wealth and status of the Welsh aristocracy. The garden is remembered for its historical association with the castle, which later became the childhood home of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
