Newton House; Dynevor Castle;Plas Dinefwr, Llandeilo — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Newton House stands as a grey, four-towered castle in Llandeilo, built in 1660 and reshaped in the 1850s after surviving the Rebecca Riots, where an empty grave was dug to threaten its occupant. The site layers two millennia of life, from a Neolithic axe to Roman forts, beneath a deer park landscaped by Capability Brown. Tradition claims Walter the Butler still drifts through the rooms, his tobacco smoke visible in the air, reminding visitors that the house remembers every hand that touched it.
