This narrow, 3 storey building, just yards from the harbor at Tenby, was erected in the early 15th century. It is constructed of lime and sandstone rubble and has a round chimney and garderobe that raises the full height of the building. It is typical of the type of flourishing merchant's house that was built when Tenby was a flourishing port in the late Middle Ages. It houses an amazing collection of locally made tools and furniture. The furniture, pewter, wall hangings and ceramics were copied from Tudor pieces coming from the area.

Tenby has a number of other Tudor connections. The town walls were rebuilt in 1457 under the patronage of Jasper Tudor, Earl of Pembroke. Robert Recorde was also born here, who is remembered for creating the 'equals' symbol for numeracy work.

Henry Tudor was born in Pembroke Castle. After exile in France, he traveled to the Battle of Bosworth in 1485 from 'Mill Bay' near Dale, gathering supporters along his journey. Jasper Tudur and George Owen, Henllys, Lord of Cemaes, are also key figures in the history of the County. After the Battle of Bosworth, Rhys ap Thomas became Lord of Carew and built a grand estate around the castle. By 1558, it was all placed in the hands of Sir John Perrot, a favorite of Queen Elizabeth 1st.

At the beginning of the period the importance of the Church was enormous, but there were changes that led to the destruction of the monasteries.

People's lives changed because of the discoveries of the time. Trading salt, wine, oil, coal, fish, tea, coffee and wool was important. There have been advances in printing, battle methods, shipbuilding methods, travel to discover new countries etc. For the first time a Bible in Welsh was used to save the language, as it had no official status or use before the publication of Bishop William Morgan's Bible (1588).
