View over the Capability Brown-style parkland to Llanarth Court from the south. The court is most impressive and was built in the 1790s. Newman in the Pevsner guide describes the building as 'a monster Neo-Classical built for John Jones of Llanarth and Treowen'. In 1849-50 the house was altered and extended by W.G. & E. Habershon. Today the house is a hospital. Ysgyryd Fawr or Skirrid can be seen on the horizon to the left.
