Penmadown House is a small country house built in the Gothic style to the design of John Samson in 1905. During an air raid in 1941 the house was hit by an enemy incendiary bomb and it was gutted by fire so that for the most part only the walled shell survives. It was built for the agent of the Port Eliot Estate and has been part of its ownership until recently acquired by the present owners. It is their intention to refurbish the house and to restore it as much as possible to its original appearance.
