Clwyd Powys Archaeological Trust record of ? medieval castle reads 'Camp shown by OS. No evidence of such feature visible on ground (CPAT site visit, 1978).'
On a small eminence to the south of the parish church, and at the distance of about 500 yards, the original 1 inch Ordnance Map marks a camp. The site is still known as ' Barclodied y Gawres,' the giantess's apronful — a not uncommon name given in Wales to glacial moraines. There are abundant indications of human occupation, but no signs of earthen banks. As the surrounding area has been cultivated for many generations, and a house once stood, probably from medieval times, at the western end of the little eminence, any banks and boulders would almost certainly have been utilised or destroyed.
