Cadw's description
Location
On the east side Llanover Park and approached via Porth-y-gwenynen.
History
Picturesque early C19 lodge probably built as a part of the Llanover Park building programme 1828-37 for Benjamin Hall. Service wing added in early C20 and there has been little alteration since.
Exterior
Built of pennant sandstone semi-ashlar with stone slate roof. L-shaped plan with additional small wing. Picturesque Tudor style. Single storey and attic. The drive elevation has two bays, with a gabled porch to the left and a 2-light diamond lattice window to the right. Small 2-light dormer in roof. Left return has a 2-light window with a single light one above, behind this a picturesquely expressed chimney stack. Right return has a small canted bay with a 2-light window above. Weatherboarded extension to rear typical of those added to most of the Llanover Estate cottages in the early C20 to house laundry, coal store and privy.
Interior
Interior not seen at resurvey.
Reason for designation
Included for its special interest as an early C19 lodge with good picturesque character which forms an integral part of a contemporary building programme at Llanover Park.
