What is recorded here
The National Monuments Record of Wales records Roche Castle as Wreck from the 20fed Ganrif period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
The *Roche Castle* was a 19th-century merchant vessel recorded in the National Monuments Record of Wales. It was lost during the 1820s, likely due to a storm off the Welsh coast, though details of its loss, cargo, or any lives lost remain unclear; its significance lies in its inclusion as a documented wreck in Wales’ maritime heritage.
