Nantgwyllt House, 1889
Powys County Archives
Home Life
The Lewis Lloyd family
The Lewis Lloyd Family were substantial property owners around Britain, and
amongst their property in Powys was Nantgwllt which stood in the Elan Valley.
Earlier in the nineteenth century, the poet Shelley had stayed in the property.
He negotiated to buy it but was not successful. Nantgwyllt was eventually flooded
when the Elan Valley reservoirs were built. More can be found about this on
the Powys
Digital History Project pages.
Little has been written about the Lewis Lloyd family themselves. However they
were in residence at Nantgwllt at the time of the 1891 census.
