Summary[edit]

| Description |
English: Bangeston (1). A ruined ?C18 mansion of remarkable size stands enveloped in woodland and undergrowth just off the lane to Angle bay and The Hall. Its surviving history is sketchy: the name derives from its original owners, the Beneger family. The earliest record of the Benegers of Bangeston is in 1172, when a branch of the family took part with Strongbow in the Irish Invasion. Radulf Beneger was rector of Pwllcrochan in the C14 where his effigy remains, see 1333858.
The date of the existing structure is not certain but sometime between 1789 and 1811 it seems to have been dismantled or fallen into decay, since by the latter date Richard Fenton was lamenting its loss and reminiscing about the hospitality formerly to be found there. Buried within the woodland are signs of an elaborate estate and gardens, betokening a wealthy and privileged lifestyle.
