Pembroke Lodge

Pembroke Lodge is a villa dating from the 1830s. It is constructed of whitened and stuccoed walls, with a slate roof featuring deep eaves with a plastered soffit and rendered stacks.

The original layout remains largely intact, consisting of a rectangular plan, two rooms wide and two rooms deep, with a central entrance leading to a cross passage. The staircase is located within this passage. The kitchen is situated to the rear left (northwest), while a breakfast room was likely positioned to the rear right, with a dining and drawing room facing south. All rooms were originally heated by back-to-back fireplaces within axial stacks. The front rooms have been extended by single-storey bay windows on the returns; the bay on the right (east) dates to the 19th century, and the one on the left (west) to the 20th century.

The symmetrical three-bay front features a hipped slate roof, rusticated quoins, and a platband below the first-floor window sills. A central open porch, likely a 20th-century addition, has a hipped slate roof supported by rectangular columns. The front door is round-headed and half-glazed and probably dates from the 1860s. The ground-floor windows are recessed with round-headed, moulded arches above them, rising to the platband level, with pilasters extending to the ground, featuring moulded capitals. These windows have moulded architraves and 4-pane sashes with margin panes. The three first-floor windows also have moulded architraves and matching glazing. The right return has similar windows, with the ground-floor bay being rectangular in plan, topped with a hipped slate roof and a moulded cornice, incorporating 2-pane plate glass sashes. The left return features two sashes mirroring those on the front and a 20th-century porch with a hipped slate roof providing access to the kitchen, with a square, glazed bay window concealed behind a parapet. The rear elevation includes two flat-roofed attic dormers and evidence of a former single-storey block, likely used for additional service rooms.

Inside, original doors remain, but the ground floor lacks original chimney-pieces. The staircase is a 20th-century replacement.

Pembroke Lodge is an example of an early 19th-century gentleman's villa, notable for its attractive frontage to the road.
