The Hendre, Gothic Revival country house in Llangattock-Vibon-Avel, Wales
The Hendre features intricate architectural details, with a hammerbeam roof in the Great Hall and extensive neo-Norman decorative elements throughout the mansion.
Built in 1829 by architect George Vaughan Maddox, The Hendre underwent three major expansions during the Victorian era under the ownership of the Rolls family.
The childhood residence of Charles Rolls, co-founder of Rolls-Royce, represents the intersection of Welsh architectural heritage and British industrial innovation.
The Grade II* listed building now functions as the clubhouse for the Rolls of Monmouth Golf Club, maintaining its connection to the Rolls family legacy.
The estate contained its own gas-making facility and electricity-generating house within the service court, demonstrating advanced technological capabilities for its time.
