Trostrey Court

The house played a role in the English Civil War when it was seized by the forces of Thomas Fairfax during the siege of Raglan Castle.

[1] Charles Hughes was a prominent Cavalier and Trostrey was taken by General Thomas Fairfax during the siege of Raglan Castle in 1646.

[1] In the mid-18th century, the estate was sold to Valentine Morris, a sugar planter who lived at the, much grander, Piercefield House.

[1] In the 20th century, the court was bought by the Morgans, and, still run as a working farm and private estate, is owned by their descendants.

[1] The court is a Grade II* listed building, the Cadw designation noting its "important and early history...(and its)...fine panelling".
