St Fagans
The museum stands in the grounds of the magnificent St Fagans Castle and gardens, a late 16th-century manor house donated to the people of Wales by the Earl of Plymouth in 1948. It brings buildings from Wales into the Gardens and you will find the two seater toilet from Our Farm (Hendre Ifan Goch) at the bottom of the garden of Kennixton Farm.
More details here: Two Seater Toilet – Ty Bach
