Cogan, Vale of Glamorgan history
Cogan Pill
The area that would become Cogan was known as Cogan Pill for much of its history. The pil (a tidal inlet) lay within the commote of Dinas Powys and joined into the River Ely near today’s Pont y Werin footbridge. The Pîl is no longer extant, having been developed into the Penarth Dock in the nineteenth century.
Cogan Pill House
Cogan Pill House was first mentioned in a will of 1531, but soon passed into the possession of the Herbert family. The current Hall House still has many late 15th century features, and a Mid 16th century rear wing. It is unclear when this house was first built.
Industrial and Modern Cogan
Most of the building in the village took place over the ten years between 1859 and 1869 and Cogan contained two busy brickworks making the local marl bricks still seen today all over Cogan and Penarth. The majority of the many small local Cogan shops, butcher, baker, greengrocer, hardware store, chemist, barbers, newsagents and general grocery shops have been closed.
