Pair of lodges, gates and piers with flanking walls to NW of Tredegar House

This listing describes a pair of single-storey lodges built in the mid-19th century in the Restoration style, located to the northwest of Tredegar House. The lodges feature red brick elevations with Bathstone dressings and have steeply pitched hipped roofs that are slated, with sprocketted eaves. Each lodge has a central tall Bathstone chimney stack that is rusticated, with a brick panel on the side and a moulded, projecting cornice cap. There is a heavy Bathstone modillion cornice at the eaves, along with a Bathstone plinth and quoins.

The side elevations facing the road each have a large Bathstone window designed in a mullion and transom style, featuring a shouldered architrave and a flat, projecting moulded cornice above. The front elevations, which face inward, include a central doorway with a Bathstone surround, a shouldered architrave, and a pediment above, flanked by smaller single-light windows that are similar to the side windows.

Connecting the two lodges are four rusticated Bathstone piers with moulded caps, alongside central taller Bathstone gate piers that also have moulded plinths and caps. A projecting cornice is supported by modillions. The ornate Bathstone urn finials are designed in a cup and cover style, featuring scrolled acanthus details underneath, human masks on the sides, gadrooning around the rim, and a cavetto moulded lid topped with a knopped finial. The central gates are made of wrought iron, featuring upswept scrolling cresting, and there are short sections of red brick screen walls on either side, which terminate in similar rusticated piers. The lodges were not available for inspection at the time of the resurvey in February 1996.
