Portclew House

Bordered by the rich cultivated farmlands of Trewent, Lake and Portclew, remnants of medieval times still remain.

Portclew House was tenanted by the Llewelyn family from the mid 16th century until 1841 when it became the property of Thomas Josiah Wedgewood of the Staffordshire pottery family who 'gentrified' the house as a Regency residence. Today, the house and outbuildings have been carefully restored and it is now a Guesthouse.

On the opposite side of the road, overlooking the coast, Upper Portclew house was already a gentry house and was the largest house in the Lamphey parish until the 1820s when Lamphey Court was built. In 1841 a legal dispute between William Parry of Upper Portclew and the Mathias family of Lamphey Court confirmed the Burrows as manorial waste.
