Small house of uncertain date, possibly C18. The house stands just N of the site of the important C16 mansion of Prendergast, marked as ruins on the 1888 O.S. and may have been associated. It was much restored in 1992. This house and the adjoining one are marked as Prendergast Place on the 1888 O.S., when Well Lane was a continuation of Church Lane, since cut by the modern Sidney Rees Way. It had a cemented slate roof in 1974.
Prendergast was the C12 seat of Maurice de Prendergast who accompanied Strongbow to Ireland. It was later owned by the Joyce, Wogan and Catharne families before becoming the seat of the Stepneys in the C16. Thomas Catharne, MP and High Sheriff, died 1567-8. His daughter married Alban Stepney, originally from London, in 1565. He was High Sheriff 1573 and several times MP. His son Sir John became first baronet in 1621, a baronetcy that ended in 1825 with the ninth baronet, but was recreated for Sir John Cowell-Stepney in 1873. The house of Prendergast had nine hearths in 1670, but became ruinous in the C18 when the family moved to Carmarthenshire, little remaining when Fenton described the site in 1811.
House, rubble stone with slate roof and rendered left end stack. One storey and attic, four bays, offset to right. Three small renewed casement-pair windows with slate sills, and a boarded door between first and second windows, all with cambered brick heads. Left end wall has semi-circular whitewashed rubble stone bread-oven projection. One window each floor in right gable end, rebuilt in 1993.
Added rear SE wing, rear SW wing being added 2005.
Interior modernised.
Included for its special interest as a smaller vernacular house, possibly connected with Prendergast mansion.
