Excerpt from The Cost of Caergwyn, Vol. 3 of 3

The new house at Caergwyn is a large stone house, with a good number of chimneys rising above its blue-slated roof, and more windows than any other house in the immediate neighbourhood, and those too of a much larger size. A regular front-door, painted to imitate mahogany, with a large lion-headed knocker upon it, opens into a spacious lobby, with a parlour on either hand, and a good staircase leading to plenty of chambers above. Behind are kitchens and all that appertains to them.

It is not a handsome house, by any means, but it is spacious, with a good garden all round, and beautifully situated on a little mound, the site of the ancient fort or carer, from which it derives its name.
