Today’s #MaritimeMonday post visits an iconic #Cardiff landmark: the Bute Docks offices, a magnificent Pierhead Building, erected in 1896 as dock offices for the Bute Dock Company. @RC_Archives 1/4
It is a two storey #Gothic building faced with red brick and terracotta. There is an embattled clock tower over the main entrance and a fine terracotta panel on the west face. 2/4
The Port Manager's Office is on the first floor, which features an ornamental chimneypiece with canopy, castellation, foliated columns, and herringbone tiles to the back. There is an original iron spiral staircase to the clock tower. 3/4

1/10 Discovery! Abermagwr Roman villa, Ceredigion. Ten years ago this month, initial excavations directed by Dr Jeffrey Davies and Dr Toby Driver confirmed the existence of Ceredigion’s first (and still only) recorded Roman villa, and the most remote villa in Wales.
2/10 Roman villas are not common in Wales; fewer than 40 known or possible villas are recorded, and these are mostly in the south and east of the country. Abermagwr Villa was discovered as a striking cropmark during aerial photography in the exceptional drought of 2006.
3/10 In 2010 funding was obtained for an exploratory excavation in 2010 by Dr Toby Driver and Dr Jeffrey Davies, with loans of equipment from the Dyfed Archaeological Trust. This confirmed what was – and remains – the only recorded Roman villa in Ceredigion (Cardiganshire).
