Earlier Houses: There was an early 18th century brick house on, or near, the site of the 19th century house.

Built / Designed For: The Rev. Richard Mytton

House & Family History: The Rev. Mytton spent around £100,000 to build Garth Hall (approximately £90 million in 2019 values using the labour value commodity index), which virtually bankrupted the family and ensured that the estate would never have the resources to maintain the house. After its demolition the balustrade from Garth Hall was installed in the garden of Stanley Hall, Shropshire.

Comments: Thomas Lloyd called Garth Hall the "Most eccentric of all Welsh houses," citing it as a stylistic mixture of ecclesiastical styles, including elements from St. George's Chapel, Windsor, Ely Cathedral, and Strawberry Hill House.
