What is recorded here

Llanthomas Castle Mound is a Norman motte-and-bailey ruin in Llanigon, Powys, built after 1081 and before 1215. Its earth and timber defences rose near the River Wye, linking the castle to the old settlement of Trefynys and the church of St. Eigon. The mound still marks a boundary between human ambition and regional memory, preserving the shape of a vanished military life.

Llanthomas Castle Mound is shown as a castle on the public map of Powys. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.

Llanthomas Castle Mound was likely built during the 13th or 14th century, possibly by a local noble or gentry family in the Welsh Marches. It is remembered as an archaeological site that provides insight into medieval defensive structures and settlement patterns in Powys.
