Lodge to Aberglasney, including stone archways into courtyard

This is a Picturesque lodge dating from the 19th century, situated within the grounds of Aberglasney. The lodge is built of scribed render to the front, rubble stone to the sides and rear, with a slate roof that extends from bracketed eaves, cusped bargeboards to the front gable, skylights, and a hipped rear. A central stone ridge stack and a blue-brick stack are present in the hipped rear roofline. The lower storey features a hipped veranda with a diamond-pattern slate roof, supported by pairs of thin wooden posts and incorporating wide elliptical arches. This lower level also includes a three-bay blind arcade in coursed freestone with round arches and an impost band. A panelled door, incorporating raised fields, occupies the central bay and is flanked by two-light casement windows in the outer bays. The upper storey has a central oval window above, flanked by replaced two-light casements.

The north-facing side wall, which fronts the road, contains a segmental-headed window with a two-light casement. Attached to the angle with the front is a gate pier with a pyramidal cap and iron pintles. The rear angle is splayed to the height of an attached boundary stone wall and corbelled to square above. The west wall has a blocked wide, chamfered doorway – the original access to a cart shed. The south side wall, which faces the courtyard, features a two-light casement window to the lower right and a blocked doorway above to the left, both beneath a gable. A wide segmental carriage doorway is positioned further to the left, with a doorway and window to its right, all with stone segmental heads and restored glazing. A segmental-headed window is located at the left end, with an abutting rubble-stone wall running across the yard. A two-light dormer window with cusped bargeboards is situated in the upper right corner.

Two stone archways are attached to the south side of the lodge, connecting it to the former stables and cart shed. The front arch, facing east, is constructed of freestone with double roll moulding and capitals to a round arch, replicating the moulding found on the gatehouse northwest of the main house. It displays coursed freestone to the spandrels and a projecting coping course. The inner arch is of plainer rubble stone with voussoirs and retains gate pintles. The interior has been altered.
