Scholarly reconstruction of Soulton Hall in accession created by James D. Wenn and James R. Syrett of Byrga Geniht Ltd for Soulton Hall in 2024
The meeting involved discussions comparing the architectural features of both brick-built, pyramidal-roofed structures, noting their shared Renaissance influences. The historical context of Sir Richard Clough (Bachygraig) and Sir Rowland Hill (Soulton Hall), including their involvement in Bible publication and philanthropic endeavors, was also a point of focus.

The visit provided an opportunity to examine the parallels between the surviving elements of Bachygraig, such as the porter’s lodge archway with its rhombic dodecahedron detailing, and the historical layout of Soulton Hall. The families exchanged information and perspectives on the history and evolution of their respective properties.
This occasion is considered a significant event, representing a direct link between the present-day families and the historical figures and architectural legacies of Bach-y-graig and Soulton Hall.
