It is unclear why this farm was called Mountain Hall as it on a flattish-topped ridge at no great height. I am told it dates back to about 1650 and was built by the Sheriff of Cardigan and was the main house in a large estate. It used to be limewashed but removal of the many layers of lime revealed some very nice stonework.
