Description
High Lodge to Eggleston Hall is a lodge, now a private house, built around 1850. It is constructed of coursed squared sandstone with ashlar dressings, a plinth, and quoins, topped with a Welsh slate roof featuring stone gable copings. The building is designed in the Tudor style and has an L-plan layout. It is a single storey with two bays. The elevation facing the drive has a left bay that projects forward, and a gabled porch set at a 45-degree angle in the inner return, which contains double half-glazed doors framed by a widely-chamfered Tudor-arched surround with a block-stopped dripmould. There is a 5-light canted bay window with stone mullions and horizontal glazing bars located under a gable on the left side. To the right of the porch, there is a small 20th-century window with a label mould above it. The gable copings rest on roll-moulded kneelers, and there are two coped octagonal stone chimneys on the left ridge, along with one on a wide external stack on the right return, which features offsets.
