Loading ...Margam Castle @ Margam Castle - Description
Built on the site of an ancient Iron age settlement stands the imposing presence of Margam Castle. This wonderful piece of Gothic architecture sets a scene of mystery and intrigue.
The castle had in its history some amazing rebuild work and over the ten years taken to complete the building it is thought that there were several cases of experienced masons falling to their death from scaffolding the castle walls.
The Talbot family lived here until the outbreak of war in 1939.
At that time the castle was bought by David Evans-Bevan, who found it difficult the take care of the vast property and the property was requisitioned and used by British and American forces during World War Two.
After the war the Castle fell into disrepair and was restored by Glamorgan Council during the 1970′s. The house is still staffed 24 hours a day by a dedicated staff, many of whom have bore witness of some truly terrifying encounters.
One frequently encountered spirit is thought be Robert Scott a gamekeeper at the house for many years. It is thought that Scott was murdered by a poacher and his spirit still rages around the grounds today. Robert Scott has often been seen purposefully ascending the Gothic staircase leading the Castle. His presence has come forward regularly with psychic investigators, all of whom have insisted his spirit is consumed with rage over his unjust killing.
Will you hear the often reported sound of giggling children through the long corridors and dramatic rooms of the family areas. There have been reports of children in Victorian dress seen drifting in and out of doorways and mischievously moving objects.
The blacksmith is a familiar vision to many of the gamekeepers and gardening staff who maintain the vast castle grounds. At night security guards have reported running footsteps and chattering voices with no sign of any living intruder.
During investigations by other groups, reports of cold spots and orbs in the Castle were frighteningly abundant; it seems the Castle is filled with the energies of those once living. Will you experience having things thrown at you? It is alleged that rocks have been thrown at those who hold séances and endeavour to speak with the spirits. The most violent and angry spirit is certainly Robert Scott who is said to have slammed doors and hurled projectiles, and emit a foreboding presence.
Do you dare to join the Sixth Sense PI team in investigating Margam Castle….a lone vigil maybe?
This is a truly majestic venue.
