century still standing in Montgomeryshire, and Glansevern, designed by the notable Shrewsbury architect Joseph Bromfield in the Greek Revival style and probably the best example of his work.

[4] Another notable house is Garthmyl Hall, Berriew, which is by a leading 19th century designer and architect James Kellaway Colling.

[5] Rather than the individual houses, Berriew is best remembered for its half timbered cottages which cluster around the churchyard and along the banks of the river Rhiew.

[6] As a result of his work Berriew developed as a village with many attractive Cottage Ornée houses.

Penson's work can be recognised by the massive brick chimney stacks which have been added to the houses, the ornamental bargeboards to the gables and in some cases the black and white painting on the brick work to give the impression of timber framing.

Mirror-artist and sculptor Andrew Logan bought the village squash courts and converted the building into a sculpture museum.

The Berriew Show is a major attraction for the village and is held every August Bank Holiday Saturday.
