BARN HISTORY The Barn consists in part the original farmhouse called 'Mwyndy Bach' (Small Ironhouse), dating back to1570 and owned by Jenneta daughter of William morgan and occupied by Lewis ap Jevan. The farm consisted of 13 acres of cleared woodland and in the 17th century was occupied by minor gentry, Evan ap Rees related through marriage to the Bassetts of Lanelay. Agriculture remailed the principal occupation of the locality. In 1861 the farm house was occupied by Rosser Evans, a widower of 75 years, with his son Edward age 33 years as farm labourers and Jane David 14 years as servant. The original house can be identified from the remains, and was probably a long Welsh house with cow sheds attached, covered in thatch, later with walls were raised to make first floor bedrooms with a stone tile roof. The dining room stands on the part used by our forefathers for replenishing the needs of the body since 1570 or even earlier. We hope that this background to the barn will give you enlightenment to the full enjoyment of your visit.
