What is recorded here
Old Quarry sits inside Powis Castle Park, marked in the national record as a Post Medieval extraction site. Men may have pulled stone from that hillside to build or decorate the estates around it, leaving a wound the land still carries. The quarry stopped being a busy workplace, yet its shape remains visible in the park.
The National Monuments Record of Wales records Old Quarry, Powis Castle Park as Quarry 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.
