Quarry, Powis Castle Park

Quarry

What is recorded here

Quarry, Powis Castle Park marks a Post Medieval extraction site where heavy tools broke earth for castle work. Men swung hammers in dust, loaded carts, and left behind the shallow wounds still visible in the ground. The castle grew while the quarry bled stone, and both remain tied together in the landscape.
The National Monuments Record of Wales records 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.
