Notes on GWYLFA HIRAETHOG, Denbigh Moors, Denbighshire 2011
I re-visited this house in August 2011 and can confirm very little of what is shown in the 1997 photograph remains. The chimneys have collapsed, the upper floor walls have collapsed and all that remains are a few fragments of walls and windows and a pile of stone and brick covering up a fireplace.
The telephone mast has now been removed but Hiraethog has lost so much of its height that it is no longer apparent whilst driving on the road below that here once stood an imposing and large hunting lodge albeit for only a short period of time. It has been ruined for longer than it was occupied.
