Description
The Lodge, located west of the Church of St. Barnabas, is a lodge built around 1875. It features polychrome brickwork in buff with light and dark red banding, stone dressings, and a graduated green slate roof. The building has a staggered cross plan with a later addition on the right rear.
It is a single-storey structure with attics and has a three-bay entrance front. The lodge sits on a chamfered stone plinth and includes a wide canted bay with set-back flanking bays that have slightly lower ridges. The entrance features a replaced door in a moulded surround, situated under an arcaded wooden porch with a pent roof on the right bay. The windows have been replaced, with a notable 2-light window featuring triangular-headed lights in the left bay. The canted bay showcases ovolo-moulded mullioned-and-transomed windows beneath hoodmoulds, along with small gabled dormers on the front and right return. The steeply-pitched roof, adorned with fish-scale bands, has overhanging eaves with bargeboards and pierced terracotta ridge tiles topped with end ball finials. The roof is hipped over the canted bay, right return, and rear. There are paired cylindrical ridge stacks with offset circular stone caps above the left bay and on the rear ridge. A carved stone ram's head, representing the Lambton insignia, is featured in a pointed panel on the left return gable.
An early 20th-century single-storey rear addition has been constructed in a similar style.
