Millbrook, Llanvihangel Crucorney, Monmouthshire is a house dating from the early 17th century and is a Grade II* listed building.

History and description

[edit]

The architectural historian John Newman suggests a construction date of the late 16th century,[1]although Cadw considers a date c.1600 more probable.[2] Newman describes the main block as a "classic two-unit house".[1] Constructed of Old red sandstone rubble, now whitewashed, to an L-plan, the roof is a modern replacement. The interior is largely unaltered. Privately owned, the house is available to rent.[3] Millbrook is Grade II* listed, its listing record describing it as a "well-preserved sub-medieval house with fine interiors".[2]
