A Brief History
During the Napoleonic wars French navel officers were billeted in Brecon, it is believed that some were housed here. Some are buried in the Cathedral graveyard. We have established though the County Archivists office that this property was called Paris House in 1821, it is possible that some of the officers named their billet Paris House to remind them of home.
Later the property had a number of uses, early photographs, circa 1900 show that it was used as a hardware shop, older residents of the town remember a tobacconist and a sweet shop in what is now the breakfast room, with a barbers shop in the sitting room.
