Castell Moel

In 1917 the then Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales and Monmouthshire (now RCAHMW) described the site as "showing a few vestiges of the foundation walls of what appears to be a 14th or early 15th-century castle".

"[3] The castle stands on a plateau overlooking the River Towy, and the overgrown remains are now thought to be of a late medieval L-plan hall house, once owned by the Rede family.

[citation needed] The main eastern block is a first-floor hall and set in the re-entrant angle, is an adjoining high stair turret.

The western block is a two-storey wing, with a porch and a cellar, and the walls of the castle, once supported a crenellated parapet.

The Wales Coast Path (Carmarthen to Llansteffan section) passes through the associated Green Castle Woods, a nature reserve managed by the Woodland Trust.
