Oystermouth, The Castle 1893
Photo ref:

More about this scene
Following its destruction during the rising of 1287, Oystermouth was rebuilt as a courtyard castle. At one end was a three-storey gatehouse whose top floor was occupied by a large chapel. At the other end was the rectangular tower, the remains of which are the subject of photograph No 32739. These two structures were linked together by high curtain walls. Remodelling went on into the 16th century. The castle might have been provided with some sort of outer defence, such as a palisade.
