History
 

Exterior
History: Built c1830, and associated with the Powis Castle kennels in 1840, so probably built by the estate to house a key worker. Exterior: Brick with slate roof: single central stack. 2 storeys, 3 window range, symmetrically planned with central entrance and short central rear wing. 6-panelled door in trellised porch flanked by 12-pane sash windows to ground floor, and with 9-pane sash windows above, with flat arched brick heads. The house retains its original character virtually intact - a well-detailed example of its type, which is of additional historical interest for its association with the Powis Estate.
