History
Llanharan House was built by Rees Powell before 1750 and was subsequently enlarged by Richard Hoare Jenkins in the early C19, with additions by the Blandy-Jenkins family later in the C19. The park and garden, S and W of the house respectively, were laid out by Rees Powell in the C18 but the present structural components were added in the period 1856-75 by John Blandy-Jenkins. The entrance steps belong to this latter period.
