Cottage History

Built in 1928 by the manager of the local quarry who lived in one of the nearby houses, O.T.'s Loft (or Lloft O.T. in Welsh) was originally a garage and workshop. The ground floor housed the quarry truck while upstairs was used as a workshop by a local joiner named O.T. Williams. One of the quarry manager's children, who still lives locally, recalls being a regular visitor to the workshop as a small child, learning to count and sing while sitting on the workbench at "lloft O.T.".
