What is recorded here

North Lodge stands in the Vale of Glamorgan as a Post Medieval lodge tied to St Donats Castle. It may have guided visitors, kept horses warm or marked the boundary between private land and public road. The main castle takes most attention, but the lodge reminds us that grand places also needed doors, kitchens and ordinary human hands.

The National Monuments Record of Wales records St Donats Castle, North 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.

St Donats Castle, North Lodge, is a Post Medieval structure associated with the larger St Donats Castle, which was originally built in the 13th century and later expanded by the Morgan family in the 19th century.
