Delightful Almhouses Beside a Churchyard

Llanrhaeadr almshouses were built by Jane, the widow of Maurice Jones of Ddol and Llanrhaeadr Hall in 1729. The eight houses and gardens were built for the poor elderly folk of the Parish. The complex was conceived as an H block with a central gabled porch giving access via a covered passage to a large walled garden at the rear. The eight units were originally of one room each, and had shared chimneys. Their entrances were from the passage at the rear and sides. In 1820 the almshouses were repaired where minor alterations were made. Mainly the chimneys and openings. The complex was restored again in 1963 and divided into four units.
