History

Built in the period 1856-75 by John Blandy-Jenkins and first shown on the 1875 Ordnance Survey. The W wing was probably intended first to be a coach house. Converted for domestic accommodation in 1996 by Parker Renwick Partnership.

Llanharan House was built by Rees Powell before 1750 and was subsequently enlarged by Richard Hoare Jenkins in the early C19, with additions by the Blandy-Jenkins family later in the C19.

Exterior

Comprising 2 adjoining wings of 2 storeys, of rubble stone and slate roofs. Facing S, the taller 2-window E wing has flat headed windows in the upper storey, a window lower R and doorway lower L, both under segmental heads and all renewed in earlier openings. The gable stack to the L, rising above the W wing, is rebuilt in snecked stone. The lower 2-window W wing has segmental openings in the lower storey and windows beneath the wall plate above, all renewed in earlier openings. The W gable end facing the house has a bellcote of coursed dressed stone and is surmounted by a ball finial. In the gable is a round clock face in a square wooden frame over a blocked former doorway with elliptical arch, wide enough for a carriage.
