Grade II (star) listed number 49 Cardiff Road, Llandaff, Cardiff
Cadw records that this building was erected in 1860-1863 as the National Probate Registry for Wales, designed by John Prichard, the pre-eminent Victorian architect of South Wales. This is possibly his finest secular design.
A commercial type building of such elaborate design outside a city centre is unusual for this date and reflects the importance of its function. Probate had been an ecclesiastical function until 1857. The building was converted for modern office use c1990. Though much changed internally, it is little changed externally from its original appearance.

South side of the Black Lion pub, Llandaff, Cardiff
The Cardiff Road side of the pub on the corner of High Street. The Llandaff City website states that the pub is so named because a black lion appears as part of the heraldic shield of the Mathew family of Llandaff. Three of their family tombs are in Llandaff Cathedral and other members have wall memorials there.
For part of the 19th century the pub was known as The Romilly, after Sir Samuel Romilly MP, the Solicitor General and a leading antislavery campaigner, acquired the Manor of Llandaff from the Mathew family in 1817. His family sold the Manor to W S Cartwright in 1852 whereupon the pub name reverted to the Black Lion.
