Margam Castle
Margam Castle is a large early 19th-century country house in a Tudor Revival style built for Christopher Rice Mansel Talbot and designed by Thomas Hopper. The ashlar-built, asymmetrical house with turrets, gables and many grouped chimney stacks stands within the formal Margam Country Park and retains its terraces, service court and estate buildings under local authority care.

As it stood in 1835
The shape it held in its prime.
Two-storey, asymmetrical Tudor-Revival country house in finely cut pale-grey ashlar with an extended horizontal frontage broken by projecting gabled bays, turrets and a taller prospect tower; crenellated parapets, irregular steep gables, oriel, bay and lancet windows, an elaborate central porch entry and numerous clustered decorative chimney stacks punctuate the roofline. The house faces formal terraced lawns and a box-edged parterre with gravel paths, low terrace walls and a service court set to one side.
