Description
Oversley Lodge is a house, originally a hunting lodge, dating from around 1840 and built for Robert Hyde Greg. Constructed of dressed buff sandstone, it has a Welsh slate roof and two stone chimneys. The design is in a picturesque style, following a T-shaped plan. The west front, which is two storeys and four bays, features a single-storey verandah extending across the left two bays, supported by bracketed wooden piers resting on stone bases. Behind the verandah are sash windows with lozenge-shaped glazing bars. Above the verandah, the third bay has a timber-framed gabled dormer, and the right-hand bay is set beneath the main gable, containing a two-light casement window beneath a flat stone hood, with a sash window featuring lozenge-shaped glazing bars above. The bargeboarded gable is detailed with wooden brackets supported on stone corbels, a motif repeated around the building. Two-storey canted bay windows are present on both the north and south fronts. The interior has not been inspected.
