Cwrt Plas y Dre was a small hall house of fifteenth- century origin. In 1885 it was purchased by Pryce Jones and part of the house - the hall and gallery together with the outside staircase - was moved the grounds of Dolerw, Newtown. Much of the original timber was replaced when re-erection took place, and most of the panelling is believed to be the work of Newtown craftsmen. During the Second World ward the building was occupied by the Armed Forces and subsequently fell into disrepair. In more recent times the building has been used as a Quaker Meeting House.
