Hanes
The Llwyngwair estate was owned by the Bowen family since at least the early seventeenth century. The family also acquired the Castell Gorfod estate in Carmarthenshire following the marriage of George Bowen (1722-1810) with Easter, daughter of William Thomas of Pentowyn and heiress of Castell Gorfod. The Bowen family continued to own the Castell Gorfod estate until James Bevan Bowen, a barrister and MP for Pembrokeshire, 1866-1868 and 1876-1880, sold it in 1871. In 1873 the estate measured 6,123 acres with an estimated annual rental of £4035.
