What is recorded here

Penrhyn Castle, Icehouse (Ii), Bangor is a Post Medieval icehouse beside the castle. It may have stored ice through summer for kitchens and cellars. The stones still suggest a cold room built for convenience, while the castle enjoyed warmth and light above.

The National Monuments Record of Wales records Penrhyn Castle, Icehouse (Ii), Bangor as Icehouse 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.

Penrhyn Castle, including its Icehouse (II), was built in the 18th and 19th centuries by the Pennant family, who held the estate for several centuries. The icehouse is listed for its historical and architectural significance as part of a large estate associated with the influential Welsh gentry.
