About

The Thomas family eventually paid the price for their extravagant lifestyle and in 1774 were forced to sell land and property and Wenvoe Castle passed into the hands of Peter Birt who made his personal fortune from coal and canals in Yorkshire. Mr Birt immediately set about dismantling the buildings on the site rebuilding in its place a mansion house with castellated battlements with front of the new 'castle' measuring some 374 feet long. This was the only Mansion House built in Wales that was designed by Robert Adams andthe accompanying picture illustrates a grand and imposing building. The Birt family married into the Jenner family who later became involved in the creation of the golf course.
