Gelli Farmhouse, Llanvetherine, Monmouthshire, is a farmhouse dating from the early 17th century. The settlement at Gelli-wig has a recorded history dating from the 14th century. The house is Grade II* listed.

History

The manor of Gelli-wig is recorded as belonging to Roger de Gunter in 1349.[1] Cadw considers that the current house is likely to have been built by James Hughes, in the early to mid-17th century.[2] Hughes's descendant, also James, was Sheriff of Monmouthshire in 1717 and was probably responsible for the 18th century reconstruction.[1] Later in that century, the house was the vicarage for the Reverend William Watkins, vicar of Llangattock Lingoed, Llantilio Pertholey and Llanvihangel Crucorney.[1] The farmhouse remains a private residence.

Architecture and description

The house was originally two residences, set at right angles.[1] The left-hand block has a cider house attached to it.[1] The house is of sandstone rubble, now rendered, of two storeys and with a slate roof.[1] The interior is "exceptionally well-preserved"[1] and contains important decorative features from the 17th and 18th centuries, including a "highly unusual painted" parlour.[1] Fox and Raglan also note a "good fireplace" in the Renaissance style of their three-volume series Monmouthshire Houses.{{sfn|Fox|Raglan|1994|p=110}}

The farmhouse is a Grade II* listed building.[1]
