I think the price is still £2 million ... The actual mansion house is the building which is deteriorating the least , at present the vegitation which was cut back 2 years ago is 4 feet tall again covering most of the inside of the mansion and the immediate surroundings .. The two pavillions are stable now ,akthough a large stone dropped off from teh top recently and broke on the ground , not sure what those tudor rose type of decorations are , did you realise there were quite ornate carvings just under them? They were covered up to preserve them 2 years ago . I have pictures of them in the pictures section ...
The gardener's cottage behind is falling apart at a faster rate now , the kitchen wall has virtualy collapsed , again it is all overgrown and you cant get too near . The barn also is changing fast , the last part of the roof collapsed last summer , the far end, that part with the three arches ,collapsed this summer , The upheaval and deep ruts in the grounds in front of the mansion caused by the digger 2 years ago has healed nicely after being filled in about a year ago . The stables are much the same since the fire there in the 1980's . We have the heart foundation run there in october which should bring people and publicity to the grounds,

This isn't a comment, but a question.
I visited the mansion recently and thought it was beautiful and was disappointed with the Americans using it as 'target practice'.
However, I was just wondering what are those two little building each side of the mansion? Also, what are those carvings above the pillars? I thought they were Tudor Roses at first but when I got a closer look they don't seem like Tudor Roses at all.
I would appreciate if you could assist me with answers, thank you.
Scarlett, South Wales, Chepstow.
