A small manor house, part dating from the 15th century. Oliver Cromwell allegedly stayed here during his campaign against the Royalists in North Wales. The house was bought by Colonel Andrew Campbell in 1962. At that time it did not have road access, which the Colonel rectified, but not before he had moved in all his furniture and household effects by rail.
He allowed the Deviationists to use part of it as a Mess during the construction period. This usage came to an end in autumn 1973.
The property, now in different ownership, has been split into two, the Manor house and the cottage. These are available, separately, for hire. See their external Commercial site.
