Description

Park House Lodge is an early 19th-century inner park lodge located on the north approach to Cholmondeley Castle. It features whitened brickwork and a slate roof. The building is two stories high with a single bay gable facade, complemented by a single-storey entrance and a single-bay return. The gable end includes a small canted bay window with cast-iron lattice casements and a roof with lead-roll hips. On the first floor, there is a two-light lozenge casement window with a stone sill and a stepped hoodmould. The entrance door, situated in the hipped lean-to on the east side, consists of three vertical panels set in a heavy frame, topped with a hoodmould. The gable is adorned with an open pediment featuring a wide soffit, shaped purlin-ends, and a finial. The west return has a lozenge window with a stone sill and hoodmould at ground floor level, while the upper window has been partially altered to a wooden casement with glazing bars. A central ridge stack with divided flues joins at the ridge and cap.
