In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Dryslwyn like this:
DRYSLWYN, a hamlet in Llangathen parish, Carmarthen; on the river Towy, 4½ miles WSW of Llandeilo-fawr. It has a post office under Carmarthen, and fairs on 1 July and 6 Sept. Dryslwyn Castle here, on the summit of a large hill, comprises extensive earthworks, ivy-clad walls, and a tower of a castle erected by one of the princes of the house of Dynevor
