Believed to date back to 1826 or thereabouts, Fronfelen Hall was originally in the ownership of the local slate quarry owners and owned much of the surrounding valley in the original 800 acre estate.

The property is constructed of coursed, slate blocks presumably derived from the estate quaries. The house was adapted to a Nursing Home in 1970's. Most original detail have survived including the deep eaves, sash windows and some mouldings with key motif. The interesting original plan has been retained.

Including the long driveway and entrance, the area of land surrounding the property extends to about 2.75 acres. This is now very overgrown but it is reported that there was formally an ordered and walled garden with evidence of glass houses. Some 19th Century survives in the garden, including 2 large tulip trees. The stable and coal house range has been converted and now forms part of the accommodation. The entrance to the drive is a pair of squat pillars. (Information from Chris & Christine Millar, previous occupiers Nov. 2007). What3Words: ///glosses.deliver.severe.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
