Treowen Treowen is a Jacobean manor house built around the 1620s for William Jones.  Later in the 17th century the Jones family built Llanarth Court near Abergavenny and moved out, as a result the house has remained little changed, though it has lost the top floor on the south side of the house.  The top floor may originally have been a Long Gallery.  The house is Grade I listed.  In this view in the foreground in the garden is a sundial.  The house is a member of the Historic Houses Association and is open each year for a few days.
