Description | Samuel Jones held this house from Thomas Eyre at the time of Griffith's Valuation when it was valued at £28. It was described in the sale rental of 1864 as 'substanially and tastefully built', with spacious drawing rooms and 13 bedrooms. It later became a boys' secondary school run by the Franciscan Brothers. A school still occupies the site. |
