Local History

Newport Factoids: #15 Pendragon House, Caerleon

today6 September 2024 23

Background

Pendragon House dates back to 1760 and is built on the remains of even earlier constructions.  In the hallway, there is a trapdoor under which one can see the surface of a medieval cobbled street. Even more surprising, beneath the house is thought to be a drain built by Romans, taking water from the ancient baths.

During the late 1930s, Pendragon House was home to Spanish children who had been evacuated from the Spanish Civil War.
