History

The site was originally occupied by The Brooks, a country house built for James Charles Hill of Blaenavon Ironworks in the 1860s.[1] It was renamed Nevill Hall, in recognition of his own family name, when it was acquired by the Marquess of Abergavenny in 1890.[1] After the Marquess died in 1915, it had two further owners before being sold to the local hospital board for use as a convalescent facility in 1920.[1]

By the late 1960s the hospital needed modernising and the current facility was opened in 1970.[1] A new education centre was officially opened by Jane Hutt AM in May 2002.[2]
