A Grade II* listed building, it remains a private residence.
History and architecture
The service block to the house, dating from the mid-18th century, forms its earliest part.[1] The Nicholas family, which owned the house from its construction, added a large villa at right angles to the service wing in the early 19th century, and further extensions were undertaken around 1895. The house was subsequently sold to the Jackson (later Mather Jackson) family of Llantilio Court, who used Brynderi as the dower house for the estate.[1] The Gwent County Archive records the occupant in 1916 as "Gertrude Elizabeth Mather Jackson of Brynderi, near Abergavenny, spinster".[2] The house is constructed in a Regency style, which is uncommon in Monmouthshire and the architect of the villa is unknown. The architect of the 1895 extension was A. E. Johnson of Abergavenny.[1] Of stucco, the house is of two-storeys with attics and a Welsh slate roof. The porch is in a Doric style and the wrought-iron veranda is original. The staircase hall, and much of the interior, is largely intact.[3] It remains a private residence and is a Grade II* listed building.[1]
