What is recorded here

Castle Pill marks the east edge of Milford Haven where a medieval castle guarded the narrow inlet. It stood beside Pill Priory and the busy waterway used by Vikings, Henry II’s invasion fleet, and later warships. The name still points to that defensive moment when stone and sea met at the throat of the haven.
The National Monuments Record of Wales records Castle Pill as Castle from the Post Medieval; Medieval period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Built during the medieval period, Castle Pill is remembered as a recorded but largely uninvestigated site noted in the National Monuments Record of Wales, highlighting its historical presence in the landscape.

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