Croft-Y-Bwla
is a country house and farm north-west of Monmouth, south-east Wales. The house was built around 1830 and was designed by the noted Monmouth architect George Vaughan Maddox. It has been listed as Grade II since 1974.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/wales/monmouthshire/monmouth )〕
Part of the estate is being developed for housing, under the name Parc Glyndwr. During archaeological investigations in advance of development, excavations revealed the remains of a Neolithic crannog built on a man-made island away from the shore of a now-vanished lake, as well as evidence of a Bronze Age boatbuilding community on the site.
==Etymology==
The house name means "bull's croft". "'" is a Welsh word borrowed from the English "bull" and it appears in written form for the first time in 1253: '. The native and older word for bull in Welsh is "'", which is much more common. "'" also appears in placenames in Mid-Wales e.g. Carreg-y-Bwla, a working farm between Llangurig and Rhayader.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.gigrin.co.uk/and/theoldhouse.html )〕
