Glamorgan-Gwent Archaeological Trust Historic Environment Record report of Medieval Castle in grid square SS5697 reads "This site comprises a medieval Castle situated within Gowerton. The grid reference does not appear to be accurate; no further information is currently available."

Gatehouse Comments

Virtually all of this grid square is tidal estuary with Loughor castle in the very north of the square. Loughor castle is in Llwchwr Community. In this grid square Gowerton Community is entirely mud flats. Presumably a reference to Loughor Castle. Can certainly be rejected as a castle in Gowerton at this reference.
