friendly faces keeping watch since 1927


In architecture, a gargoyle is a carved or formed grotesque with a spout designed to convey water from a roof and away from the side of a building, thereby preventing rainwater from running down masonry walls and eroding the mortar between.

While Broadpark Lodge's gargoyles do not actually carry water from off the building's roof -- and are arguably not grotesque -- they do add to the building's distinctive character. 

Discover the many individually and intricately carved gargoyle faces placed throughout the exterior of our building, in our vestibules, and inside our restaurant, I-THai.
