Rogerstone Castle was owned by the Kemys family, who also owned Greenfield Castle and Maesglas Castle. Records show that the castle, also referred to as Tribginlion, and was sold by the family in 1611. Today the ruin consists of a grass-covered motte. Local information claims that the castle's low stone walls were knocked down within recent memory.
