Llwyd Mansion is thought to be the finest timber framed building in Oswestry to still be standing.

It was built in 1604 for John Lloyd (or Llwyd in Welsh) as a home and shop area at the bottom.

The building has retained its 'original' look over the years, even though it was restored around 1875 due to some renovation needs.

Following its restoration the building was used by Midland Bank for many years, and is now used as a residential premises by a salon.
