The History Of Gelli - Y Gelli was built around 1630 and for many years was a Quaker meeting house, at this time Gelli existed as one cottage ( subsequently Star Cottage was created next door in the 18th Century). Recent excavations have discovered an ancient stone surface drain in the front garden. Many of the beams, including the huge lintel for the inglenook fireplace are original ships' timbers which show marks of their previous use.
The recesses (now attractive shelving features) at the rear of the fireplace, have two deep circular holes with iron grids which would have acted as a hot plate when burning charcoal. The open bread oven was in the right of the fireplace.
In recent times the garage served as the town's labour exchange. A blocked up door once opened into the recessed area of the lounge by the fireplace. This entrance could be restored and the garage area could be developed to create additional accommodation. (subject to planning)
