Shortened guide to Kidwelly Castle

C.A. Ralegh Radford was appointed Inspector for Ancient Monuments in Wales and Monmouthshire in 1929. He then prepared a series of guidebooks for sites in Wales (and England), including one for Kidwelly Castle (1935). A shortened version of this Ministry of Works guide was published in 1946 (and reprinted in 1948) at the price of 2d (as opposed to 6d for the illustrated guide). The fuller guide ‘is not available at present’. This ‘abridged guide’ was still the only one available in 1954 (see list here).

This short guide includes a short history and a description. The centre pages feature a plan of the castle.
