Description

Langdon Lodge is a lodge built in the late 19th century, designed in a picturesque Tudor style. The building is constructed from slate rubble with granite dressings and features some timber-framing. It has a thatched roof with gabled ends and shaped bargeboards, and is L-shaped in plan, standing two storeys tall. The gable end facing the road is jettied and includes timber-framing. The thatched roof sweeps down over a porch located in the angle of the building. The windows are casements with leaded panes, and there are some granite mullion windows with hood moulds. A small slate-roofed oriel supported by brackets is found on the west gable end, and there is a tall red brick central chimney stack. At the rear (south), there is a later 19th-century slate-roofed extension.
