What is recorded here
Boat House at Pembroke Castle dates from the Post Medieval period, when the castle still needed water access for trade, travel or escape. A narrow chamber near the tide line would have smelled of wet stone, rope and salt, echoing with the clash of oars against brick. Men may have pulled heavy boats through darkness, listening for enemies or waiting for friends. The house for boats remains a humble marker of that busy, dangerous waterfront life.
