What is recorded here

Penllyn Castle, Lodge stands in the Vale of Glamorgan as a Post Medieval lodge, its name pretending to grandeur while admitting a smaller purpose. That gap between castle and lodge is the interesting part: someone wanted the place to sound important enough to be remembered. Whether it guarded a gate, a estate or only pride, the naming itself is the first act of architecture.

The National Monuments Record of Wales records Penllyn Castle, Lodge as Lodge from the Post Medieval period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
