What is recorded here
Wolfscastle is a Pembrokeshire village where an early twelfth-century motte-and-bailey may occupy the remains of an earlier Iron Age fort, beside Treffgarne Gorge and its Pre-Cambrian rock. The place has kept layers of life: a short-lived Cistercian monastery, a medieval mix of Normans and Welshmen, a corn mill running since at least 1326, and chapels built by nearby people. It is not a polished monument but a lived landscape, where stones, water and memory keep doing work.
The National Monuments Record of Wales records Wolfscastle as Village from the Multiperiod 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.
