Cadw's description

Above the railway line to NW of Llangollen Bridge; at the E end of the lane set behind rubble wall and railed garden.

Late C18/early C19 with possible earlier origins; enlarged after 1844 forming T-shape. Once part of the Pale estate.

2 storey, painted render elevations with slate roof, red brick chimney stacks and boarded eaves. The leg of the 'T' has a lateral chimney breast facing the road and a tall small pane staircase window. 1 window gable end facing E with 16 pane sash over French windows. At right angles to this range (the top part of the 'T') there is an attic gable with pane casement window; 16-pane sashes below. Later projection across corner containing entrance porch. Lean-to on W side. The rear overlooking the railway and river is 2+1-window including advanced gable to left; small pane sash windows (one 20 pane) and one French window with marginal glazing bars; door to centre with stained glass.

Some contemporary late Georgian detail retained internally, former staircase window blocked after addition of corner porch extensions. Stone flagged cellar.

Group value with Railway Station, Green Lodge and the Lamp-standard.
