Y Dolydd Old Photos
Last updated: 24 November 2005
Y Dolydd was built in 1838-39 to the design of local architect Thomas Penson. Known as as the Llanfyllin Union Workhouse, it was built to house up to 250 paupers. Both its location and its plan are typical of the distinctive building type established by the Poor Law Amendment Act of 1834. Click through some old photos of the workhouse below...
