The ruins of the 13th century town walls show that Tenby was a fortified town since Norman times. This late 15th-century town house dates from a little later, when Tenby was a thriving trading port. The National Trust has set out to re-create the Tudor period when the house would have been occupied by a merchant and his family.
Many original bits remain, like the ground-floor chimney at the rear of the house.
Also the original scarfed roof-trusses survive, and frescos from the house's early times can be seen on three of the walls. Sun 12 to 3 Return to Wales Calling - National Trust Page .
