Gregynog Hall is a large country mansion in the village of Tregynon, 4 miles northwest of Newtown, Powys. The Blayney and Hanbury-Tracy families lived on the site from the fifteenth to nineteenth centuries; in 1920 the current house was bought by Gwendoline and Margaret Davies, who turned it into an important cultural centre. During their ownership Gregynog hosted music festivals, gave its name to a printing press and, until the sisters' respective bequests to the National Museum of Wales, a housed significant collection of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist art. In 1960 the house was transferred to the University of Wales as a conference and study centre.
