Ladies Pool, Powis Castle Park

Reservoir

What is recorded here

Ladies Pool is a Post Medieval reservoir inside Powis Castle Park, yet no visible water remains at the saved point. That absence is not a mistake, but a reminder that human-made water can vanish while the shape and purpose stay buried beneath grass. The pool may have filled during heavy rain, served the castle kitchen, or simply disappeared when the land changed hands. Whatever it did, it stopped being obvious long before it stopped existing.
The National Monuments Record of Wales records Ladies Pool, Powis Castle Park as Reservoir 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.
