The Lodge, Abbey St Bathans

The Lodge at Abbey St Bathans is a single-storey, four-bay L-plan gabled lodge dating from the earlier to mid-19th century. It was originally associated with Abbey St Bathans House. The building features squared and snecked polished whinstone with stugged and droved cream sandstone dressings, while the rear is constructed of rubble whinstone. It has a raised base course, overhanging timber bracketed eaves, and overhanging timber bracketed gableheads. The exterior includes stugged sandstone quoins, stugged long and short surrounds to openings, lightly droved margins, chamfered reveals, chamfered sandstone mullions, and chamfered cills.

On the southwest (entrance) elevation, there is a gabled porch in the penultimate bay to the outer left, with a timber panelled door set back within. A single window is located in the outer left bay, and beneath the central gable, there is a projecting four-light window. A single window breaks the eaves in a gabled dormerhead to the outer right.

The northwest (side) elevation features a narrow window centered at ground level and a bipartite window in the outer left bay. The southeast (side) elevation has a gabled wing with a four-light canted window in the outer left bay and a single window in the bay to the right.

The lodge predominantly has lying-pane windows, with four-pane glazing in timber sash and case windows on the northwest side. The roof is covered with graded grey slate and features a tapering finial on the southeast side, along with cast-iron rainwater goods. There is a coped sandstone ridge stack on the main wing and coped stacks at the rear, with predominantly circular cans and a decorative twisted octagonal can at the rear that has floral detail.

The interior was not seen in 1997.

The boundary wall, gatepiers, and railings include a coped rubble wall flanking the side entrance, square-plan whinstone gatepiers with sandstone dressings and pyramidal caps, although the gates are missing. Plain wrought iron railings enclose the garden, with intersecting hoop railings at the front of the house.
