History

Formerly part of the Maes-y-neuadd estate, recorded in the tithe apportionment of the parish, 1842, as being under the care of the Honourable Edward Mostyn Lloyd Mostyn, Sir William Wynne, Knight and the Honourable Edward John Stanley, Trustees under the will of John Nanney Clerk, deceased. The estate cottage was at that time named 'Gafal Cwm' and occupied by David Williams.

The cottage was renovated into its present state in 1912, when it was re-roofed and new windows inserted, but respecting the original form and openings.
