Powis Castle Park Mound is an earthwork feature within the designed landscape of Powis Castle in Montgomeryshire, Wales. The mound forms part of the post-medieval and modern gardens and parks that developed around the castle, reflecting the evolution of ornamental landscape design over several centuries. Its precise dating and original function within the park scheme remain subjects of archaeological consideration, though it represents an intentional earthwork element incorporated into the estate's designed grounds. The feature is recorded in the Cadw schedule of monuments as an unclassified earthwork within the wider historic garden and parkland context of this significant Welsh gentry seat.
