Trawsgoed, Manor estate in Ceredigion, Wales.
The mansion at Trawsgoed features a 50-room Victorian wing set within Grade II listed parkland, surrounded by formal gardens with rare Chilean plants.
The Vaughan family acquired the estate in 1200 through marriage, expanding it significantly after obtaining lands from Strata Florida Abbey during the English Reformation.
The National Library of Wales holds extensive family documents from Trawsgoed, including deeds and papers dating from 1184 to 1860.
The estate currently houses research facilities operated by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council and maintains private apartments for the Vaughan family.
The Lisburne Lead Mines on the estate ranked among the most profitable mining operations in Wales during the 1880s.
