Vaynor Park

The red brick mansion stands on elevated grounds at 185 meters, featuring Renaissance Revival porches, shaped gables, and multiple dormers across its facade.

Originally constructed in the mid-15th century for Edward ap Hywel ab leuan Llwyd, the structure underwent major renovations between 1840 and 1853 by architect Thomas Penson.

The interior preserves 17th-century elements including ornate wall paneling, Renaissance-style fireplaces, decorative plaster ceilings, and turned balusters throughout various rooms.

The building maintains its original E-plan layout with a central entrance hall leading to multiple rooms including a library, drawing room, and dining area.

The mansion represents one of the few substantial early 17th-century brick houses in the county, with its architectural evolution spanning several centuries.
