Next door to the right of this photograph is a 17th century house named Ty'r Moerwydd or House of the Birch which has been listed by Cadw. In 1904 it became a convent for Breton nuns who opened a girls school. In 1956 this imptressive extension was added to the school. It later became an Outdoor Education Centre owned by a London Borough until it closed a number of years ago. Its future is undecided though new houses are being constructed to the rear in the former open space and car park.
