Summary

Glanhafren Estate. Originally owned by the Griffiths family, but had been sold to the Pryce-Jones family by 1745, when it formed part of a small estate. It was purchased by John Naylor in 1854. The house is between the railway line and the river Severn to the S of Welshpool, approached via a track which leaves the A490 Montgomery Road immediately W of Cilcewydd. The house dates from the early 18th century and is Grade II* on account of important interior paneled rooms. There is an illustration of the house in 1794, by John Ingleby, commissioned by Thomas Pennant which is now in the National Library of Wales. The house was extensively rebuilt and a complex of farm buildings were added for John Naylor by the the estate architects Poundley and Walker. The great barn, which was typical of Poundley’s work was burnt down on 26th December 2005. The barn was dated 1871 on the rainwater heads, and was listed Grade II*, but is now delisted.
