Cae'r Lan Castle

Cae'r Lan Castle is a former inn that has been transformed into a house. It features painted stucco with slate roofs that overhang at the gables, and brick stacks at either end. The building is two storeys high with an attic. The front has flat eaves supported by paired minimal brackets. There are four widely spaced bays, which include three hornless 12-pane sash windows with thin stone sills. To the left of the door, there is a two-window range, and to the right, a one-window range. The door is a later 19th-century six-panel design with a shallow triangular head, set within a painted timber surround that has a cornice raised as a pediment in the centre, supported by large console brackets.

A notable feature is the later 19th-century cast-iron porch, which is unusually large and delicate, with a flat top that rises above the height of the first-floor sills. The porch is supported by two thin cast-iron Gothic columns with ornate capitals, quatrefoil shafts with bosses at mid-height, and bulbous bases on octagonal plinths. These columns carry pierced cast-iron spandrel brackets that form arches to the front and each side, adorned with five-petal flower and scroll motifs. Stone steps lead up to the door, and there are two 19th-century corbels above the porch, possibly for a former inn sign.

On the left end wall, there is a later 19th-century four-pane sash window in the attic and another in the first floor, both with tooled stone sills. A small cellar vent is also present. The right end has a similar attic window, but the ground floor features an earlier 12-pane sash window.

At the rear, there are two parallel wings. The wing facing the roadside (east) has late 19th-century details, featuring three windows with four-pane sashes above and tripartite 2-4-2-pane sashes on each side of a large timber doorcase. This doorcase has double panelled doors with a three-pane overlight, a plinth, fluted pilaster strips, large console brackets, and a heavy modillion cornice. The west rear range, which faces the canal, may be original or from the early 19th century. It is set back and has three large 16-pane hornless sash windows on the first floor, offset to the left, above a later 19th-century pair of sashes to the left with a cambered head, two doors in the centre (one blocked), and a later 19th-century small four-pane sash to the right.

The interior reportedly features panelled doors, a steep central staircase, and stone barrel-vaulted cellars. There are late 18th-century to early 19th-century fielded panelled shutters on the ground floor left window.
