History No 4
Built in the early to mid-C19 as a pair with Number 3, said to be dated DM 1830 on a roof truss, marked on 1834 map. The site was that of the 'Nagg's Head' inn, recorded in 1573, and where Cromwell was said to have stayed in 1649. Said to have been rebuilt as the town house of Williams family of Edwinsford.The plot is unusually long, extending down to the town wall, but is more built over on 1834 map. The antiquarian Francis Green was born at No 3 in 1853, then occupied by his father, Francis Green, attorney. From c1870 to 1887 No 4 was occupied by Ashbridge's School, or the Carmarthen Collegiate School, owned by John Hales Ashbridge. Nos 3 and 4 owned in 2001 by Trant & Richards solicitors, restored externally in late C20.
