Blog post: The Priory, Llandogo

EMD’s family home from the late 1890s, this blog post tells the extensive history of this house which sits high above the Wye Valley in South Wales.

The Priory, Llandogo

This house (sometimes known as The Falls) was the country residence of the de la Pastures from around 190o. Llandogo is a small village in Monmouthshire, Wales, about halfway between Monmouth and Chepstow in the Wye Valley. The village overlooks the Wye to the Forest of Dean beyond; the Priory is at the top of the hill. Here’s the view from The Priory in the 1950s (copyright Clint Mann, used under the Creative Commons 2.0 licence.):
