About Pen-y-bryn

Pen-y-bryn is a historic two-storey manor house located in Abergwyngregyn, Gwynedd, in north-west Wales, near the A55, approximately five miles east of Bangor and eight miles west of Conwy. The manor, primarily built of broken stone with roughly dressed quoins and a slate roof, features a four-storey stone tower and offers views over the Menai Strait towards Anglesey. Dendrochronological analysis revealed that the roof timbers date back to 1624, following a significant refurbishment, although the structure has undergone multiple rebuildings and renovations since its medieval origins.
