Abstract:
Rumney Castle is a small ringwork close to the River Rhymney. Two phases of defensive banks, ditches and a palisade are described along with several phases of timber and stone buildings, which include a gate tower, halls and a variety of large and small buildings. During the late thirteenth century the site was converted into a manorial centre. A well-sealed coin hoard dated to c 1288 -- 1289 provides a terminus post quem for the abandonment of the site. Included in the article are notes on these topics: G C Boon `The coins' (134) and `Glass bead' (144), S Lloyd-Fern and S H Sell `Objects of iron, bronze and bone' (134--43), D R Evans `Lead objects' (144), J Parkhouse `Stone objects' (144), B E Vyner `The pottery' (145--53), G G Jones `The animal bone' (151--4), A K G Jones `Fish' (154), J L Wilkinson `Human bone' (154--5), D Williams `Plant macrofossil remains' (155--6).
