Garden pavilion at Craig-y-nos

The garden pavilion at Craig-y-nos is a small games pavilion built in an exotic chalet style. It features a timber frame, originally with plaster infill, and is rendered and painted with sections of red and blue brick, along with a rendered plinth. The roof is covered with terracotta fishscale tiles adorned with decorative blue bands, terracotta ridge tiles, and decorative apex finials, two of which depict dragons. The pavilion has very decorative bargeboards, with swept, overhanging eaves supported by brackets, and small hips on the side gable ends.

The structure consists of three bays, with the central bay featuring a highly decorative gable that rises above the main roofline. The timbers in this gable are curved and swept, incorporating a louvred upper opening with a shield below. The main entrance is a wide semi-circular timber arch with side posts, set on a curved dado of moulded timber rail and decorative panels, leading to a porch with a tiled floor. A doorway to the changing rooms is located within the boarding at the rear. On either side of the pavilion are cross windows with diamond-shaped quarries and coloured glass, with the moulded sillband extending continuously with the porch rail.

Inside, the pavilion is boarded in three sections, with a central lobby painted blue and white, and changing rooms on either side finished in dark brown. Each changing room features lift-up lidded seats for storing games equipment. The pavilion also includes washrooms and lavatories, which retain some original fittings.
