Wern-ddu farmhouse, Llantilio Pertholey, Monmouthshire is a farmhouse of 17th century origins. It has been significantly altered in the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries and the Monmouthshire antiquarian, Sir Joseph Bradney recorded that it had "suffered so much by continual alterations that it shows but little of its antiquity". It is a Grade II* listed building.

History

Sir Joseph Bradney described Wern-ddu as "in its origins one of the oldest in the county".[1] He ascribed the original building to the Herbert family.[1] Cadw considers the current building to date from the early 17th century,[1] while the architectural historian John Newman places it somewhat later, in the late 17th century.{{sfn|Newman|2000|p=357}} Sir Cyril Fox and Lord Raglan, in the second of their three-volume history of vernacular architecture Monmouthshire Houses, give a date of c.1675.{{sfn|Fox|Raglan|1994|p=160}} Wern-ddu was reconstructed in the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries and Bradney recorded in the early 20th century that "it shows but little of its antiquity".[1] It remains a private house.

Architecture and description

John Newman describes the farmhouse as being of a "semi-double-pile plan".{{sfn|Newman|2000|p=357}} It is built of rendered Old Red Sandstone rubble and is of two storeys with attics, and a three-storey stair turret.[1] The roof is of Welsh slate.[1] It contains an important staircase, which Newman considers "a fine piece"{{sfn|Newman|2000|p=357}} and a "coffered wooden ceiling with bold mouldings".{{sfn|Fox|Raglan|1994|p=160}} It is a Grade II* listed building.[1]
