Gate lodge in Farrandeligeen

Detached single-bay single-storey with dormer attic gate lodge, built c.1820, now disused. Recent corrugated-iron extension to south. Pitched artificial slate roof with rendered chimneystack, timber bargeboards and wide soffits. Smooth and roughcast render to rubble stone walls, retaining remains of slate hanging (east). Square-headed openings with timber casement lattice windows, and replacement timber windows. Stone sills and timber lintels to window openings. Square-headed door opening with timber battened door. Situated within dry stone walls with ruinous outbuildings to rear (east).

Though now disused, this modest gate lodge has retained much of its original character and appeal. Formerly relating to Castlehaven Rectory, it is an interesting reminder of the status of clergy dwellings in the past.
