Initially built in the late Victorian era or Edwardian era as a substantial town house for the very well to do of Abergavenny on what was then, the leafy outskirts above the town. Later surrounded by 1950's council estates the building became 'an old people's home' as they used to call them, which I assume is now no longer suitable due to changing legislation and commercial pressures, so who knows its future?
