What is recorded here
Palace Vaults occupy a Post Medieval dwelling niche on Palace Street in Caernarfon. The name suggests chambers set beneath or beside a grander building, perhaps serving storage, shelter or private dealings when the town was busy. Whether people kept goods, drank wine or simply lived above the darker rooms, the vaults still imply a hidden layer beneath the street.
