Old College was originally started in 1860 as Castle House to a design of John Nash, but money problems led to the building being bought by the University of Wales, now Aberystwyth University. It was much extended, and after a major fire in 1885, rebuilt and further extended. Although still used by the university, the main campus is now around a mile from here on Penglais Road.
