History

Penarth lies in Dyffryn Llanfair, an ancient township which lies to the south of the river Severn. The earliest known owner of Penarth was Richard Pryce, who in 1604 was commemorated in a poem by the Welsh Bard and Herald, Lewys Dwnn. Dwnn was lived in nearby Bettws Cedewain.

In 1710 and 1717 an Edward Powell, Gent is mentioned as living at Penarth Ucha. The Rev John Parker, (noted for his diaries and drawings of Church screens), who was Rector of Llanmerewig (1827-1844), lived here. Mr and Mrs Higgs restored the house with grants from the Historic Buildings…
