St Fagans Castle Wall

Wall

What is recorded here

St Fagans Castle Wall stands in Cardiff as a Post Medieval boundary, its stones marking the edge of a estate rather than a defensive fortress. It may have guided carts, kept sheep from gardens, or simply declared that land belonged to someone with confidence. The wall does not need to be tall or unbreakable; it needs to be visible and certain.
The National Monuments Record of Wales records St Fagans Castle Wall as Wall 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.
St Fagans Castle Wall is associated with the medieval St Fagans Castle, originally built in the 13th century by the de Spenseresque family, later held by the Vaughan family. It is remembered as part of a historic site now incorporated into St Fagans National Museum of History in Cardiff, preserving Welsh architectural and cultural heritage.

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