Its origins are older but the present building was constructed by the Monmouth architect George Vaughan Maddox for himself in 1834–1837, and subsequently altered by him after a later sale. It was converted into apartments in the 20th century. The house is Grade II* listed. HistoryThe Monmouthshire historian Sir Joseph Bradney records that the property was originally owned by the Vaughan family of Llanrothal.[1] In 1834, James Vaughan left the house to his nephew George Vaughan Maddox.[1] Maddox, from a family of architects, had a significant practice in Monmouthshire and his works in Monmouth gave the county town, "its particular architectural flavour".{{sfn|Newman|2000|p=394}} Maddox certainly undertook works at Pentwyn on his own behalf, and Bradney suggests he designed further improvements after selling the property to the Reverend Canon John Harding in 1864.[1] However, Maddox died in that year and Cadw considers that most of the improvements and extensions to the house predate the sale.[1] In the 20th century, the villa was converted into apartments.[2] Architecture and descriptionThe architectural historian John Newman describes the house as "Tudoresque" in style.{{sfn|Newman|2000|p=516}} Cadw prefers a description of Georgian Gothick.[1] The house is of two storeys, with large attics above, and rendered in stucco.[1] The roofline has elaborate bargeboards and pinnacles.[3] The interiors, which contain many original features, are similarly Gothick in design, with the exception of a large dining room dating from circa 1900.[4] The building is Grade II* listed, on account of its architectural interest and its historic connections with George Vaughan Maddox.[1] Notes1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 {{cite web|url=http://cadwpublic-api.azurewebsites.net/reports/listedbuilding/FullReport?lang=en&id=87504|title=Listed Buildings – Full Report – HeritageBill Cadw Assets – Reports|website=cadwpublic-api.azurewebsites.net}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.zoopla.co.uk/property/pentwyn/rockfield/monmouth/np25-5qb/16802932|title=Property details for Pentwyn Rockfield Monmouth NP25 5QB – Zoopla|website=www.zoopla.co.uk}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.coflein.gov.uk/en/site/20620/details/pentwyn|title=PENTWYN - Coflein|website=www.coflein.gov.uk}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/300087504-pentwyn-llangattock-vibon-avel#.WW-Z7JJK19A|title=Pentwyn, Llangattock-Vibon-Avel, Monmouthshire|first=Good|last=Stuff|website=www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk}} References
