Pentwyn, Llanllowell, Monmouthshire is a farmhouse dating from the mid-16th century. The house is Grade II* listed, with the adjacent barn having its own Grade II listing.

History and description

Sir Cyril Fox and Lord Raglan, in their three-volume study Monmouthshire Houses, date the building to 1560–1570.{{sfn|Fox|Raglan|1994|p=89}} They describe it as originally constructed to an L-plan. The house was rebuilt in the 18th century.[1] On a tithe map of 1837, Pentwyn is recorded as being in the ownership of a Thomas James, and being farmed with 161 acres by a Mattias Goff.[1] The 1895 Kelly's Directory for Monmouthshire records an Evans Francis as being resident.[2]

The architectural historian John Newman describes Pentwyn as "conspicuously sited on a hillock overlooking the River Usk.{{sfn|Newman|2000|p=324}} The farmhouse is of 2 storeys and the entrance front dates from the Georgian remodelling.[1] Fox and Raglan, and Newman,{{sfn|Newman|2000|p=324}} note the early use of stone mullioned windows, Fox and Raglan assigning the farmhouse to their "exotic" grouping of Monmouthshire houses on this basis.{{sfn|Fox|Raglan|1994|p=89}}

Pentwyn has a Grade II* listing, its listing describing it as "a Georgian reconstruction of an important 16th century house",[1] while the 18th century barn has a Grade II listing.[3]
