PEMBROKESHIRE COAST NATIONAL PARK

Carew Castle still belongs to the Carew family. However, since 1983 the castle, tidal mill, millpond and picnic area have been leased to the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority. We now run Carew as a visitor attraction and educational site.

Between 1984 and 1998 we carried out a major programme of restoration work on the castle, generously funded by CADW: Welsh Historic Monuments. This involved consolidating much of the stonework and replacing three of the huge Bath stone windows in the North Range.

The work won a Prince of Wales Award in 1998. We have also collaborated with the University of Wales, Lampeter on several years of archaeological excavations and research.
