Cadw's description
Location
Situated about 1.3 km W of St Lawrence on N side of road to Newton Cross, down drive.
History
Earlier C19 small gentry house, apparently built on the older estate of Trerhos owned or occupied by the Morse family in the C18, and then the Lloyds, then Vaughans and by the earlier C19 owned by the Edwardes family of Sealyham. There is a lease of 1834 to James Harries, from the Edwardes, and the Harries family were still tenants in 1904. There is however a brass plaque to Ann Edwardes (d 1889) of Ty Rhos in St Lawrence church. The plan form of entry and stair in the back wing leaving the front range without external access appears also at Camrose vicarage on a slightly larger scale.
