Built late C19 in Gothic style, as the main lodge for Plas Llanfair, a large Gothic style house to the south. The Plas Llanfair estate was purchased in 1853 by Lord Clarence Paget, Son of the First Marquess of Anglesey. The main house later became the Indefatigable Nautical Training School, and is now the property of the M.O.D. The lodge became a private house in late 1980s. The lodge is shown on the 25" O.S. map (1st Edition).
The lodge is T-shaped in plan, 2 storeys and basement, with the main, entrance, elevation facing N.

The house is bounded to the E and S by a mortared stone wall with rubble coping, with a lintelled doorway to the left of the house. The walling facing the road is capped with granite in the form of minuture battlements.
