From the Wikipedia article

Hafodunos Hall (Welsh: Plasty Hafodunos) is a Gothic Revival house located near the village of Llangernyw in Conwy County Borough, Wales. Designed by Sir George Gilbert Scott, it was built between 1861 and 1866 for Henry Robertson Sandbach, replacing a house that had been built in 1674. The house, of Venetian Gothic design, is considered Scott's second most important country house after Kelham Hall, Nottinghamshire, and arguably his most important Welsh building. Subject to a devastating fire in 2004, the ruins are currently being restored by a private owner. Hafodunos is a Grade I listed building. The grounds are a Registered Park and Garden with many of the buildings and structures in the grounds having their own listings.
