The house is a historical landmark in Llandysul and even has its own plaque about Rev William Marles who established a small school in the mid-1800s, (he was Dylan Thomas's great uncle). The owner has informed us about some of the history of this lovely home: In 1860, the Rev. William Thomas (known as Gwilym Marles, and Dylan Thomas’ great Uncle) began the Grammar School. As pupil numbers increased he moved to Myfyrgell on Seion Hill. A larger Grammar School was built by public subscription and opened in 1895. This later became Ysgol Dyffryn Teifi. Myfyrgell became a boarding house for boys from outlying farms to stay in while attending the new grammar school. Later, when transport was more available, it was converted into a house and inhabited by the Spanish teacher at the school, and his family. In the early eighties, Myfyrgell was modernized and it became the house it is today. This is a versatile home ideal for multifamily occupancy or income potential.
