Cardiff Local Guide A guide to all Things Cardiff
A PROPERTY developer has appeared in court to deny altering the character of the Grade II-listed building behind the hymn ‘All Things Bright And Beautiful’.
Kim Gregory Davies (59), pleaded not guilty to five offences under the Planning Act 1990. He is accused of making more than 60 alterations to Llanwenarth House, Monmouthshire, south Wales.
The alleged alterations included replacing timber windows with “modern” ones and the installation of a “mosaic-clad” whirlpool bath, between June 25 2007 and August 18 2012, Cardiff Crown Court heard. The Georgian-style manor is where Irish composer Cecil Alexander is thought to have written the lyrics to the hymn.
A trial is likely to take place next May.
