History

Architecture and description

The building is rendered, under a roof of Welsh slate.[2] Of two storeys, with an attic, it has a double-front plan.[2] The architectural historian John Newman noted the "botched" pediment while the Monmouth historian Keith Kissack recorded its Grecian fanlight.[5] The interior has a notable dog-leg staircase dating from the late 17th century and a complete early 19th century strong-room, installed when the building was used as a solicitors' office.[2] The building is listed Grade II*.[2]
