Description
East Lodge is a former lodge, now a house, built around 1850. It is constructed of dressed stone with ashlar dressings, featuring a wood and tile roof along with brick chimneys. The building is single storey with dormers and consists of three bays. The central entrance has a boarded door, flanked by two-light mullioned windows set in double-chamfered surrounds, each with hoodmoulds. The lodge has a very high hipped roof with broad overhanging eaves that create a veranda around three sides of the house, supported by un-dressed tree trunks. There are two gabled dormers, each with two-light mullioned windows and elaborate Gothic bargeboards. A tall central ridge stack is topped with a modillion cornice.
