From the Wikipedia article
Llangattock Court, Penpergwm, Monmouthshire, Wales, is a country house of late-medieval origins. Cadw gives a date for original building of 1490-1520. In the 17th century, the house was substantially reconstructed for the Wroths. Further rebuilding took place in the early 20th century. In the later 20th century, the building fell into ruin, before a substantial reconstruction in 1985-2000. It is a Grade II* listed building.

Background
History
The origin of the house is late-medieval, possibly 1490-1520. This building would have formed a traditional hall-house, with a cross passage and a solar.
Architecture
The architectural historian John Newman describes the Court as "wholly unplanned". His Gwent/Monmouthshire volume in the Buildings of Wales series calls the Court, Llangattock House". The building is of stone, in an L-shaped plan. Sir Cyril Fox and Lord Raglan, in their multi-volume history, Monmouthshire Houses, record a "monumental fireplace". Cadw describes this feature as, "a very large and fine c1600 moulded stone fireplace". The Court is a Grade II* listed building.
