Cadw's description
Location
Set back from the road opposite to Cresselly Green and to N of former smithy.
History
In a style consistent with the 1860's estate improvements by Clarke and Holland of Newmarket for Lady Catherine Allen. Cresselly House was built c.1770 by John Bartlett Allen.
Exterior
Similar to gate-piers at E Lodge. Pair of square, ashlar, gate-piers with rock-faced rubble panels and crocket and rosette cornices. Block pedestals rise through pyramidal caps, polygonal bases to elaborate ball-finials; panelled to pedestals with Allen of Cresselly metal crests (missing). Single, side-hung timber gate similar to that at Lanesend on the E drive; ironwork bars (partly missing) and diagonal brace with scrolly ends and pierced timber panels to bottom.
Reason for designation
Listed as part of a well-preserved Victorian scheme of estate improvements.
Group value.
