History of Penrhiw Priory

Penrhiw Priory was initially built in 1884 by the Church in Wales as a Vicarage. It was built on the site of a large longhouse farm building. John Middleton and Son of Cheltenham carried out the design.

Penrhiw is a fine example of high Victorian architecture, built in Tudorbethan style with squared Caerbwdi rubble stone, limestone ashlar dressings, steep slate roofs with bargeboards, terracotta ridge tiles and tall stone stacks. The interior woodwork is pitch pine, with deep skirting boards. Large, panelled doors, panelled window reveals and a lovely staircase. There are also two fine fireplaces with decorative tiles by William De Morgan, the celebrated Arts and Crafts ceramics maker.
