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.
