History and architecture

The service block to the house, dating from the mid-18th century, forms its earliest part.[1] The Nicholas family, which owned the house from its construction, added a large villa at right angles to the service wing in the early 19th century. Joseph Bradney, in the Skenfrith volume of his multi-part A History of Monmouthshire from the Coming of the Normans into Wales down to the Present Time, records the house being owned at this time by a Dr. George Nicholas, and subsequently his son, Francis. Owners of a school in Ealing, they used Brynderi "as an occasional residence to which they used to resort in the holidays".Шаблон:Sfn Its name was changed to Belmont in the early 19th century, reverting to Brynderi on its purchase by a Colonel Clifford in 1854.Шаблон:Sfn The house was subsequently sold to the Jackson (later Mather Jackson) family of Llantilio Court, who used Brynderi as the dower house for the estate.[1] Further extensions to the house were undertaken in 1895. The Gwent County Archive records the occupant in 1916 as "Gertrude Elizabeth Mather Jackson of Brynderi, near Abergavenny, spinster".[2] The house is constructed in a Regency style, which is uncommon in Monmouthshire and the architect of the villa is unknown. The architect of the 1895 extension was A. E. Johnson of Abergavenny.[1] Of stucco, the house is of two-storeys with attics and a Welsh slate roof. The porch is in a Doric style and the wrought-iron veranda is original. The staircase hall, and much of the interior, is largely intact.[3] It remains a private residence and is a Grade II* listed building.[1] Unusually for a building with such listed status, Brynderi is not mentioned in John Newman's Monmouthshire volume of the Pevsner Buildings of Wales.Шаблон:EfnШаблон:Sfn
