Restoring a medieval hall house in Wales | The Landmark Trust

- Rewind the clock to November 2014 and gain an insight into the process we go through before finalising a scheme for the use of the building.
Llwyn Celyn is a Grade 1 listed building of the late 15th century, now in peril. It is regarded by Cadw as one of the finest medieval houses in Wales, and was once part of the Llanthony Priory estate in the Black Mountains region of the Brecon Beacons National Park.

What an amazing and wonderful look you've given us into what must often be very delicate decision making. As an American, we have nothing - nothing that comes close to the situation you've documented here. Thank you for creating a powerful learning tool. Everyone should see this video.
I just found this channel. No muss no fuss, just great content. Thanks!
Wonderful to see the backstory of all the considerations that go into modifying a traditionally built historic building.
Great work... one more piece of history saved...
This is a wonderful video, which I have enjoyed very much. If, however, things such as differing floor levels will be be made level, in order to adhere to current health and safety regulations and disability needs, then I fear we may have seen it at its best, even in its current, broken down state. Of course some H and S rules should be adhered to, such as fire regulations, removal of asbestos etc; but to impose twenty-first century regulations, such as uneven floor levels, on what is an essentially medieval and seventeenth-century building, then it is a pity that the Landmark Trust now has custody of it. It is things such as steps incomprehensibly leading up, and then down, that gives such buildings their character. Of course disabled people (I am one myself) should be able to enjoy such buildings, but there has to be some common sense applied to such issues, to which other options are open.

Please more update videos!
Such beautiful videos. Thank you.
Its the first time i have heard of a grade one listed building!
The levelling of floors is a too big issue, drowning in the restoration.
Just preserve the major building and keep your hands off the given measurements.
The sliding grounds have to make a stop.
Only 26:38 minutes? It felt as if this video went on for at least 90 minutes.
One of the finest medieval houses in Wales having to accommodate the disabled is nonsense. That is not restoration, that is "fixing it up".
They are hypocrites. Let’s remove 19th century changes to keep the historical context, let’s make it handicapped accessible. Bollocks !
asshole...
It's just what has always been done, adapting a building to current needs. The future inhabitants will thank them for it once they get older and their bodies start to age.
Ooh it's just like our old farmhouse! I would love to reinstate the cross passage and a widow in the larder... Also a door. Do you have someone who could advise us?
How much did you buy your property and how much did you pay to restore it ?
You need to show us the physical work and finished product.
You make everything absolutely f*,cked
This is a very interesting video, but it would be improved by better sound.
I Want to rebuild a smaller scale one myself.. I have some cash funding - no bank help.. Is there anything available at all.Thank you.
Win the lottery.
Lol
Why would a farmhouse have a raised dais?
Why would it not?
@@hesterwright3674 because....why would a person of farmer status need a dais when we are aware of why one exists? 🙄
@@HowardTVFan owning land/a fairly large farm in medieval times made you quite wealthy I thought
@@hesterwright3674 u could be right. What do I know....I'm an American. 🤣🤣🤦🏾♂️
@@HowardTVFan , If this Substantial Structure IS supposed to be Medieval then the Law back then Stated you Had To Own Land to Vote or Have Your Say and Be Accounted Accordingly And Be Respected. If this Was A Landowner and Considered Landed Gentry Back Then , the in the 🆎 Absence of Nobility or Lords Directly Thereabout those parts, Then the Jurisdiction of Settling Disputes, Arbitration, 💰 Paying Your Taxes To The Crown 👑 and Lords of the Region as Such Matters Fell To the Appointed Landed Gentry to Collect and Keep Everything Copacetic and Not Have The Crown 👑 Come Down On Their Necks For A Visit. I Would Guess The Diadem Is For A Raised Bench Of Arbitration and Judgment for Administrating Proceedings and Taking Tallies Of Fines and Taxes. Even George Washington who Stringently Cultivated the Brand and Persona Of Being “ A Gentlemen Farmer” of whom just happened to be for now be Elected and Running A Newly Formed Country and Governance Was Just And Only Temporal. Even He was Convinced By His Wife Martha Washington to Install on Her Insistence a Dias in there Receiving Room To Meet and Connect and Receive Guests in their accommodations in New York and Philadelphia and wherever they 🧳 Traveled they Took a Portable Dias with them to Receive people. It was actually of Comment and Speculated On as to why and what did Washington want to be received and revered As A King 👑?? Or Not??!! So even then there was an issue and questions as to “ Why Does a Farmer Need a Raised Dias or Diadem??
this is a load of saxons playing god with welsh buildings
Do it, then talk about it.
Current health and safety laws sacrifice historic structure original details.
The best advice is to ignore all health and safety regulations. People before politics.
My opinion just plummeted....use laths or savolit boards at least
You should use t-rex femur bones as support columns to keep with historical correctness...
75% of the budget must have gone to the consultants.
Dear oh dear expanded metal....really
I understand the preoccupation with 'access' but really ? when almost no metro stations are wheelchair friendly. In Paris they were talking about forcing doctors to move to easy access buildings when almost no one can take a metro or train ,, I know its not the subject here but what are the percentage of wheelchair users ? I KNOW that people will be up in arms saying that equality of access is a right ,, when so many rights are being ignored.
Duuuh: that makes sense.
As a wheelchair user who is passionate about historical travel, I'm not sure why "what a wheelchair user will do in a farm on a hillside is beyond" you - I've traveled around the world in a wheelchair, including the most remote mountain village in Bosnia and all sorts of ancient places Israel and the West Bank, and had intense and wonderful experiences. If everyone thought like you, I wouldn't have been able to. The most problematic thing about being in a wheelchair is not being in a wheelchair, it's the prejudice of people with low expectations about what people in wheelchairs might want or be able to do. Also, one of the options they mentioned are portable ramps - while they don't solve all access problems, they can make a big difference. They are inexpensive and can be put away when not needed, so what's the downside?
@@katem.148 Hello, you are right and my 'easy' comment was insensitive to say the least. As a 'valid' person I have almost no idea of the difficulties of getting around on a chair. Once more I apologise, god bless.
@@TheFiown, thanks for your reply. It's a big, fascinating world out there, and here's hoping we all get to see as much of it as we want and can all keep learning new things every day. Good wishes to you and yours.
@@katem.148 they can have other accomodations like having people carry disabled peoples. Historical preservation is most important
She must be wearing her husband's coat. People used to dress up for tv.
Not anymore on U.K. tv. They now have the most scruffy presenters on tv.
@@4376ED People don't dress up to fly anymore either. Wear only sneakers, sweatshirts, and scruffy jeans.
Typical Landmark Trust video lots of talking, and very tittle actual doing. Take a few tips about how too put to gather a video, from This Old House on PBS in Amarica.
