Chepstow houses [5]
Pyke House, Welsh Street, appears to be an early or mid 19th century toll-house on a turnpike road, but it was reputedly originally built in 1758. Constructed in Gothick style of rendered brick under a slate roof. There is a verandah to the front and two lean-to extensions. Listed, grade II, with details at: https://cadwpublic-api.azurewebsites.net/reports/listedbuilding/FullReport?lang=&id=2605
Chepstow, the most easterly town in Wales, is located on the tidal River Wye, some 3 miles above its confluence with the River Severn. There is evidence of continuous human occupation from the Mesolithic period. The town grew in importance when the Normans erected a castle at what was the lowest bridging point of the River Wye. The town flourished as a port, being exempt from English taxation, and it mainly traded in timber and bark from the Wye Valley. The town became an important centre for tourism from the late eighteenth century.
