Description
Cilfig Lodge is a lodge built around 1820-1840 for Cilfig House. It is roughcast with concrete tile roofs and has a small, one and a half storey structure featuring a gabled east front. The center of the front projects and includes small-paned Gothic windows on each floor, with the glazing bars intersecting at the heads. To the right, there is a set-back section that has a pointed arched window, which is the head of the original main door. At the rear, there is a range with a monopitch roof and a ridge stack, and a door at the north end is accessed through a modern porch.
The current appearance of the lodge aligns closely with a watercolour from around 1840, owned by the Buckley family, which shows that the center projection of the east front originally had coping and a ball finial on the gable, as well as a ball finial at the north end of the ridge of the monopitch-roofed rear range. Additionally, there were originally a pair of fine ashlar gatepiers, with one still standing on the north side of The Avenue; the south pier, which has been removed, was connected to the lodge by a pointed arched doorway.
