Aberpergwm House, Grade II listed country house in Glynneath, Wales

The sandstone structure displays Bath stone dressings across its two-story facade with a seven-bay front situated in the Welsh countryside.

The Williams family acquired the property, formerly known as Neuadd Pergwm, in 1560 and maintained ownership through generations until the present day.

During the 15th century, the house served as a gathering place for prominent Welsh poets and became a center for Welsh language preservation.

The building requires special permissions from local authorities for any modifications or repairs due to its Grade II listed status protection.

The structure housed the East Anglian School for Deaf and Blind Children during World War II as an evacuation location from 1940 onwards.
