Disgrifiad

Penllegare was a two-storey mansion owned by the Llewelyn family. It was the home of the pioneer photographer John Dillwyn Llewelyn, whose observatory is still standing. An extension was added to the house in 1836 which included exterior canted bow windows and a conservatory was added. The house had an imposing 5-bay porch with balcony and verandah above. During the second World War the mansion was occupied by American troops. After the war the house was leased to the Bible College of Wales. The house was destroyed in an exercise by the Territorial Army (Royal Engineers) in 1961. A modern office block, now owned by the City and County of Swansea, has been built on the site.
