Overview
Gwalia Stores – also known locally as Gwalia House, or 4 Market Street – is a unique and lovely listed townhouse property with a wealth of history -parts are believed to date back to the 1600s. Carpenters' marks can be seen on its exposed beams – these were used in the medieval and post medieval periods to indicate the order in which a timber frame structure should be assembled and were scored into the wood as roman numerals. The winding staircase, original oak flooring and the well-proportioned Victorian shopfront make for a unique home full of history.

In its more recent history it has been the local saddler shop and as much of the original shop fittings were retained during its renovation - these make for a beautiful feature in the living room. It was the childhood home of the local postman. Stories of a tearoom being from the room above (now the master bedroom) have been recounted, as well as previous existences as a cobblers as well as a grocery store.

In the mid-1800s Market Street in Llanfyllin was a close rival to a High Street as a choice location for traders. In 1868 there were seventeen shops and other businesses here.
It is understood that the original shop-front sign was restored by the local Llanrhaeadr sign writer over a decade ago, maintaining that strong connection to its history and wider community.
