Coedarhydyglyn, Country house in St Georges-super-Ely, Wales.
Coedarhydyglyn is a country house built in the early 19th century with stone walls finished in white plaster and a front portico with Greek-style columns. The building sits within an estate that includes several other listed structures on the surrounding grounds.
The house was built in 1820 for Llewelyn Traherne to replace an earlier 18th-century dwelling that sat on higher ground nearby. This construction reflected the fashion for neo-classical country estates that swept through Wales during the Regency period.
Reverend John Montgomery Traherne, who owned the property in the 19th century, accumulated scientific manuscripts and established a breeding center for golden orioles.
The estate sits near the A48 road between Cardiff and St Nicholas, close to Culverhouse Cross for easy access from main routes. The setting remains rural despite proximity to urban areas, making it accessible yet set apart from city traffic.
The grounds include a wooden Japanese tea-house and a pinetum planted in the mid-20th century, both designed as part of sophisticated garden schemes. These additions show how the property evolved beyond its original house to become a complete ornamental landscape.
