Dolbelydr, Trefnant

This Landmark Trust property is open to the public on 21st to 23rd September, 10.00am to 4.00pm

The house is both historically important and a fine example of the vernacular building which dominated the domestic architecture of North Walian lesser gentry in the Tudor period.

It is perhaps best known as the home of the grammarian and physician Henry Salesbury, where he wrote the first Welsh grammar book, the Grammatica Britannica in 1593, and therefore Dolbelydr could be considered the home of the modern Welsh language.
