What is recorded here

Penllyn Castle Old School House stands in the Vale of Glamorgan as a Post Medieval school, marking the age when children walked together instead of learning alone in kitchens. It may have smelled of wet wool and wood smoke, with voices clipping consonants beneath a low roof. The building still belongs to that busy human world, even when silence covers it now.

The National Monuments Record of Wales records Penllyn Castle Old School House as School from the Post Medieval period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
