Wenvoe Castle, Georgian castle in Vale of Glamorgan, Wales.
The castle stands on the outskirts of Wenvoe village with one remaining pavilion and stable block within extensive landscaped grounds.
Peter Birt, a Yorkshire coal merchant, commissioned architect Robert Adam to build the mansion in 1776 on the site of a medieval fortress.
The gardens and parkland of Wenvoe Castle maintain Grade II status on the Cadw/ICOMOS Register of Parks and Gardens in Wales.
The east pavilion now functions as the clubhouse for Wenvoe Castle Golf Club, established in 1936 by Hugh Jenner.
A fire in 1910 destroyed most of the Georgian mansion, leaving only the east wing and stables as remnants of its former structure.
