Sir William Ffilbech owned in the C14, in the C15 it passed to the Barrett family and in the C16 to the Voyles, owners to the late C17. It was then sold to the Wogan family of Boulston owners to c1790, and in 1802 was owned by Major Robert Acland. The Tithe Map of 1845 shows a holding 206 acres (83.5 hectares) owned by Robert Innes Ackland and occupied by William Cole. Fenton in 1811 says that 'in this old house till very lately remained the old baronial hall, with a long oak table placed across the floor at the upper end, raised as in college halls, on a dais or steep'. The listing includes only the roofless single room section at the S end with the big chimney. There is an old photograph in the Pembrokeshire RCAM inventory of 1925 showing the building still roofed.
