| Abstract: | The dry summer of 2013 proved to be productive for cropmark aerial reconnaissance across many parts of south, south-west and north Wales where evidence for previously unrecorded archaeological sites emerged. Parchmarks of various structures within Pembroke Castle are known to become visible in these dry conditions and a Royal Commission aerial survey of the site in 2013 revealed footings of a large stone building within the curtain wall of the Outer Ward. This building footprint had been previously excavated in 1930-1 but no plan survived to show its shape or precise position. The building, interpreted as a Tudor Mansion and possible guest residence, is then discussed within the context of the arrival of Lady Margaret Beaufort at Pembroke Castle for the safe delivery of her baby - the future King Henry VII.
