James Howell's House and Folly, Cardiff
The plaque which can be seen on a stand in front of the house reads:
James Howell's House and Folly. This house was built as the home of James Howell, the founder of Howell's Department Store. It was sold in 1896 to the Cardiff Borough Council for use as both a Mansion House and a Judges Lodgings. James Howell then built a new private residence, which after his death was sold in 1913 to Cardiff Borough Council for use as the present Mansion House.Image
In 1918 this house became the Prince of Wales Hospital for Limbless Sailors and Soldiers,and to mark its opening the stone folly in the front garden was donated by Miss Cory of Duffryn House (aka Dyffryn House Image). The folly is made of Radyrstone and is a replica of a Megalithic Burial Chamber contained within the Maes-y-Felin Cromlech (or Chambered Long Barrow) near St Lythans, South Glamorgan,Image, which dates from the Neolithic period (C. 3000 B.C.)
After standing empty for a number of years, the house was purchased in 1977 by the Family Housing Association and converted into flats.
