St Fagans Castle Wall

Gate

What is recorded here

St Fagans Castle Wall stands as a Post Medieval gate in Cardiff, Wales, marked in the national record though its exact purpose has faded. It may have controlled entry to a estate, excluded strangers, or simply divided land between neighbours. The stones still hold that boundary, waiting for someone to remember whether they guarded a home or hidden a mistake.
The National Monuments Record of Wales records St Fagans Castle Wall 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.
St Fagans Castle Wall is part of the remains of a medieval castle associated with the de Clares and later the Bute family in south Wales. It is important as a historical and archaeological site, offering insight into late medieval defensive architecture and the region's noble history.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
