  • Caerphilly Castle
    Great Archaeological Sites in Caerphilly 6. CAERPHILLY CASTLE Caerphilly castle (ST 1555 8701) was built by Earl Gilbert II de Clare in the second half of the 13th century to consolidate his hold on the cantref of Senghenydd, which he had recently seized, and to strengthen his border against Llywelyn ap Griffydd, Prince of Gwynedd, who had recently seized Brecon. It is what is known as a ‘concentric’ castle, designed to make an enemy fight his way through successive rings of defences, and was at the cutting edge of military thinking of the day – the equivalent in South Wales of Edward I’s slightly later ring of castles around Snowdonia in the north. The Inner and Middle Wards each have a gate in the east and west sides, and the Inner East Gate could be isolated from the surrounding structures in case they were overrun. The Inner Ward also has a tower at each of its four corners and covered passages built into its curtain walls. The Middle Bailey is surrounded by a moat, which was expanded into lakes on the north and south sides of the castle. A bridge leads from the Middle Bailey’s West Gate over the moat to the Outer Bailey. Another bridge from the East Gate leads to the substantial embankments on the east side of the lakes, which form a barbican with another moat in front of them to the east. On these embankments, Earl Gilbert built the main entrance to the castle, the Outermost East Gate. The Great Hall, the administrative centre of the castle, was in the Inner Ward constructed against the south curtain wall with sets of lodgings at either end.

  • Design Review Report
    Design Review Report Caerphilly Castle Regeneration, Caerphilly DCFW Ref: N244 Meeting of 12th November 2020 Review Status PUBLIC Meeting date 12th November 2020 Issue date 20th November 2020 Scheme location Caerphilly Scheme description Visitor facilities Scheme reference number N244 Planning status Pre-application Declarations of Interest Panel members, observers and other relevant parties are required to declare in advance any interests they may have in relation to the Design Review and meeting Agenda items. Any such declarations are recorded here and in DCFW’s central records. Consultations to Date This is the first time the scheme has been reviewed. The Proposals The proposals are for the refurbishment of the existing Great Hall, conversion of the existing visitor centre into a shop, a new café, visitor reception area, toilets, catering facilities, education space, staff accommodation, external terrace and play area, and visitor interpretation and improved accessibility across the site. The objective of improving connectivity to the town itself was also identified as aim. Main Points The ambition to improve the visitor experience to the castle, ensure greater inclusivity and improve environmental conditions are all welcomed and supported by the panel. A visit to the Grade I listed Scheduled Monument should be a joyful and life enhancing experience and of a world-class standard. The review raised a number of concerns about the evolution of the design and how it has been presented which are outlined below. Design Concept The design concept and vision for the proposed new building was not clear from the information provided. There are some key early, strategic decisions that need to be made about the type of building that is being proposed, where it should be located within the context of the castle, and its relationship with the town itself.

  • 18 April 2019. Dear , ATISN 13078 – Freedom of Information Request
    18 April 2019. Dear , ATISN 13078 – Freedom of Information Request – Caerphilly Castle. Thank you for your request, which was received on 21st March 2019, about Caerphilly Castle. The information you requested is enclosed. A copy of all proposals, in their current form for the Castle, its grounds and waters (also referred to elsewhere as the ‘masterplan’). Please find attached the current Part A and Part B Masterplan documents. It is important to stress that this is a broad framework that helps capture a range of outline projects, themes and ideas that will be explored through formal business and option appraisal arrangements over the next three years. We will not necessarily be pursuing all of the projects, or in the form that they are suggested, in the plan. In as full detail as possible the planned works to the lakes and moats and the purpose of these works. The only current planned works is to undertake annual Canadian Pondweed clearance between 3rd – 21st June and 30th Sept – 18th October 2019, as agreed with the Caerphilly Angling Club and NRW at a meeting held on 20th December 2018 with Cadw. These works are necessary to control the invasive, rapid weed growth in order to maintain the biodiversity (i.e. the health of the moat and the wildlife living within in it) and the aesthetics of the moat. No further works are planned beyond this presently. 1 Any formal risk-assessment in respect of the issue of back to back fishing on the Northern Lake walkway. Cadw have not undertaken any formal risk assessment in relation to the above.

  • Equinox and Cadw Entry Title
    Category: Public Sector Campaign Company: Equinox and Cadw Entry title: The Dragon Effect Brief and objectives: Cadw — the Welsh Government‟s historic environment service, tasked Equinox with developing a fully-integrated communications campaign that would increase revenue during its key tourism periods (summer 2016 / spring 2017). SMART objectives were agreed as: Output — secure 76m total reach across all stages Outtake — demonstrate positive experiences at Cadw sites (500 people) Outcome — generate £5.26m through admissions, retail, membership during campaign period. Rationale behind campaign, including research and planning: On St David‟s Day (01 March) 2016, a giant Dragon appeared on the banks of Caerphilly Castle, attracting international media coverage and beating financial target by 195% for that month alone. Equinox was behind the PR stunt. The Dragon‟s arrival generated: 52.5m OTS — including Trinity Mirror UK‟s most shared story ever 26% increase in Caerphilly town‟s footfall — positively impacting local trade 229% increase in paying visitors to Caerphilly Castle in month of March. This presented an opportunity to build on the Dragon‟s success. Research and insight included: Ministerial Advisory Group Report — recommendations on ways to improve the commercial performance of sites Visit Wales — overarching thematic years e.g. Year of Adventure (2016) and Year of Legends (2017) meant Dragon activity needed to seamlessly play out across both Cadw visitor research — identified families as most lucrative audience Cadw custodians — identified grassroots requirements Media — identified desirable content. Planning was completed over two stages — firstly, focusing on summer 2016 with a strategic vision for 2017 roll-out. Secondly, evaluating summer 2016 activity to consider learnings and further develop 2017 tactics.
