Yes: rated Regional (record 16318006).
Can you visit Bryn Avon?

When was Bryn Avon built?

Being on the National Inventory or the Sites and Monuments Record is a record, not protection by itself: buildings are protected by their council’s Record of Protected Structures, which each council keeps and no national open list gathers, so this page can’t say which are on it.
