Troy House
Troy House is a Welsh historic house, on a "ducal" scale,〔 north-east of Mitchel Troy, Monmouthshire. The original house belonged to Blanche Herbert, Lady Troy, of the Herbert family of Raglan Castle, who owned great estates in South Wales as Marquesses of Worcester and later Dukes of Beaufort. The present structure, overlooking the River Trothy was constructed from 1681 to 1684 as a wedding present for Charles Somerset by his father, Henry Somerset, 1st Duke of Beaufort.〔John Newman, ''The Buildings of Wales: Gwent/Monmouthshire'', Penguin Books, 2000, ISBN 0-14-071053-1, p.391〕 Troy House is a Grade II
* listed building.〔("Troy House, Mitchel Troy" at britishlistedbuildings.co.uk )〕
==Description==
The house is very large, "three bays deep but no less than thirteen bays wide",〔 in a style that was very modern for the date of design, "a hipped roof over a regularly fenestrated block."〔 Some 19th-century authors wrongly attributed the design of the house to Inigo Jones.〔Dugdale, James (1819). ''(The new British traveler or, Modern Panorama of England and Wales )''. J. and J. Cundee, London. p. 576.〕
The interior contains "three good-quality, typically Jacobean decorated ceilings."〔
