Ty Hyll
Ty Hyll
On the A5 at Capel Curig. The Snowdonia Society rescued this well-known cottage from dereliction in the 1980s, and now uses it both as its office and as a show-house for visitors. According to legend, this was a ‘Ty Un Nos’ - or house built overnight, built in the 15th century. Under ancient law, he who built a house between sunset and sunrise, with walls, roof and smoking chimney, could claim the freehold.
