Main Phases of Construction 1890s, park earlier in nineteenth century or before SITE DESCRIPTION Caer Rhun Hall is situated just to the east of the B5106 Conwy to Betws y Coed road, about 7 km south of Conway. The house, although close to the road, is surrounded by gardens, and faces south over its wide, shallow terraces. The River Conwy is about 0.75 km away to the east. The home farm and walled kitchen garden lie on the other side of the B5106, immediately opposite the house. The house, now used as an accountancy college, is a large, three-storey late Victorian mansion in a style showing Elizabethan influence, built of roughly-dressed, coursed pale grey limestone with red sandstone window surrounds and chimneys. It has crow-stepped gables over the bays and some windows, and a slate roof. The roofline is heavily ornamented, having, as well as the decorative gables and many tall chimneys, thin columnar finials topped with stone balls. There are also towers on the south-east corner and in the north-east angle.

It follows a deep, fault-guided, glacial valley and contains significant flood plain and estuary areas. The upper (southern-most) section has a strong sense of containment by rising land, especially from the steep wooded slopes of Snowdonia to the west, from which a number of small rivers issue down tumbling gorges.
