What is recorded here

Powis Castle, Gate and Piers stands in Powys, Wales, as a Post Medieval gate marked in the national record. The entry frames castle grounds where visitors must still seek permission before crossing. Its pillars and opening invite imagination about who passed through, yet the formal boundary remains clear.

The National Monuments Record of Wales records Powis Castle, Gate and Piers as Gate 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.

Powis Castle, Gate and Piers were built by the Herbert family, Earls of Pembroke, in the 16th and 17th centuries. The structure is important as part of the historic Powis Castle estate, a significant example of Welsh country house architecture and a symbol of the family's long-standing influence in the region.
