History and description

Sir Cyril Fox and Lord Raglan, in their three-volume guide Monmouthshire Houses, give an original construction date of the late 16th century, with the roof of the main Tudor block dating from 1600.{{sfn|Fox|Raglan|1994|p=89}} They ascribe the wing to the South to the early 17th and 18th centuries,{{sfn|Fox|Raglan|1994|p=89}} with Cadw ascribing the North wing to the same 18th century building phase.[1] Fox and Raglan consider the style of the structure indicates a national, rather than a regional, influence.{{sfn|Fox|Raglan|1994|p=89}}. The architectural historian John Newman notes the stone window frames, with recessed spandrels and arched windows, which he considers "most unusual".{{sfn|Newman|2000|pp=358–359}} Nothing is known of the builders or early owners. By the 1840s, the farmhouse was part of the Monmouthshire estates of the Dukes of Beaufort and was let to a William Blower, along with 104 acres of land.[1] The house remains in private ownership and is Grade II* listed.[1]

Built over 200 years, the house is of a T-plan design, with a central block and two wings.[1] Constructed of whitewashed rubble to a height of two storeys, the roofs have been replaced with modern tiles.[1]
