In the mid-19th century, the hall was occupied by Edward Augustus Freeman, the Regius Professor of History at the University of Oxford. It was purchased by Charles Crofts Williams of Roath Court in 1859, who was the hall's last recorded Lord of the Manor. Around 1900 the hall was refurbished. His family lived at the hall until the development of the surrounding housing estate, when it was occupied by Llewellyn Williams.
