Additional Information

In addition to the main residence the property boasts an interesting Summer House/Folly believed to be over 200 years old. The Gothic style summer house was a folly on the Ynystanglwys estate built by George Haines around 1803. This is the only remaining building of the estate which extended over a large area of Swansea Valley. Ynystanglwys House was demolished in 1946. It is believed that Benjamin Hill, a canal boat builder, scientist and astronomer utilised the summer house as a laboratory for his experimental works along side William Robert Grove and developed the 'battery cell'.
