What is recorded here
Castell Malgwyn Tinplate Works stood in Pembrokeshire during the Post Medieval period, shaping raw metal into useful vessels for everyday life. The site carried several names, including Castle Malgwyn, Penygored and Llechryd Ironworks, suggesting a layered history of ownership or local identity. Though no longer active, the works remain recorded in the national monument register, preserving the memory of industry and labour in that corner of Wales.
The National Monuments Record of Wales records Castell Malgwyn Tinplate Works; Castle Malgwyn Tinplate Works; Penygored Tinplate Works; Llechryd Ironworks as Tinplate Works 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.
Castell Malgwyn Tinplate Works, also known as Penygored Tinplate Works and Llechryd Ironworks, was established in the 19th century as part of Wales' industrial tinplate and iron production boom. It is remembered as an example of the region's post-medieval industrial heritage and the expansion of metallurgical industries during the Industrial Revolution.
