Description
East Lodge to Blenkinsopp Hall is a gate lodge built around 1840. It is constructed of tooled dressed sandstone with a Welsh slate roof and stone chimney stacks. The main block has an almost square plan with a short wing at the rear and is designed in the Tudor style. The single-storey main block features a three-bay front with a central pair of six-panel doors set in a chamfered Tudor-arched surround, which is topped with a hoodmould. On either side of the doors are two-light chamfered-mullioned windows, also under hoodmoulds, each containing ten-pane sashes.
The lodge has deep overhanging eaves that create a verandah at the front and on the returns, supported by six thin stone posts set diagonally. The pyramidal roof is topped with a diagonally-set central stack that has a chamfered top band and two ornamental chimney pots. The slightly shorter returns also feature verandahs, supported by four posts, and there is a two-light window on the right return. At the rear, there is a single-storey bay with a replaced casement window in a chamfered surround, a moderately-pitched roof, and a stone stack at the rear end. A 20th-century single-storey addition on the rear wing is not of special interest.
