Description
The Lodge of Pen-y-fal is a Gothic style building constructed in the 19th century, made from local coursed squared red sandstone rubble with Bath freestone dressings. It features a natural slate roof and stone chimney stacks. The lodge is L-shaped, comprising a single storey and an attic.
The south-east front, which faces the road, has a gabled wing on the left and the main entrance on the right. There are two-light windows in the gable, with a quatrefoil oculus in the upper floor and trefoil heads to the lights. The main roof extends at right angles, creating an asymmetrical north-east gable with a triangular dormer that has a trefoil light.
The porch has a flat parapet adorned with a ballflower cornice that continues around a square gate pier at the corner, which also features a trefoil band and a swept pyramidal cap with a finial. The pointed arch doorway has a stopped dripmould, with a narrow window to the left. There is an additional entrance, which is half-glazed, located around the corner behind the gate post, featuring a chamfered arch.
On the north-east gable, facing the drive, there is a similar two-light upper window above a splayed bay that is unusually set back in a splayed recess, with small pointed arches over the splays on either side. The lodge has steeply pitched roofs with coped gables and large stone chimney stacks, including one on the ridge and a lateral one with offsets on the left return. The gable facing the church has modern windows, and there is a short section of wall to the left that has been repointed. The interior was not inspected during the resurvey.
