History

This is a C17 cottage which may have been the farmhouse before the larger Lodge Farm (qv) was built in 1716. It became downgraded to an outhouse at some stage and it has never been modernised. Interpretation and description are extremely difficult because it is so heavily overgrown by ivy. The farm formed part of the estates of the Morgan family of Llantarnam; Bradney recounts the division of the estate in 1707, and records the tomb of Evan James of The Lodge, (died 1774).

Exterior

The building is constructed of local rubble stone with a corrugated asbestos roof covering. It is an L-plan block, with ranges running east-west, and north-south, single storey throughout but with the rear wing higher. The elevation facing the house has a gabled section to the right which is the end of the rear wing. This has a doorway with a plank door, an oak lintel and jambs with some brick repairs. The wing to the left has a plain plank door and a camber-headed 3-light casement window. Plain roof with no chimney visible.
The other elevations are so heavily ivy clad that they cannot be described.

Interior

The interior was only partly seen at resurvey and details are obscured. There are no internal floors as far as can be seen. There is a sawn timber partition with the date 1890. It has a principal rafter roof to both ranges, with two tiers of purlins and a ridge piece, complete with only a few replacement timbers.
