Description
High Morland Lodge is a lodge house built in 1903 by William Longworth for Richard Harding Watt. It features white render over brick with stone dressings and pantiled roofs, showcasing the Edwardian Free style. The building has a tower at the rear with angle pilasters and a pyramidal roof, along with an irregular central pilaster and decorative stonework. Narrow upper lights are present, and there is a lean-to block behind the tower.
The street-facing side has a two-storeyed flat-roofed block with three windows in the return elevation and narrow lights on each floor. The wall surfaces have random projecting stone blocks and a stepped parapet. To the right, there is a round corbelled turret, and to the left, a gateway with a heavy pantiled roof that overhangs above an entablature, projecting over a segmental brick relieving arch.
On the northern return, there is a round-arched window to the left and a doorway to the right beneath the tower. A single-storeyed range beyond the tower connects to a smaller round tower. The interior has not been inspected. High Morland Lodge is part of a notable series of buildings constructed on Legh Road under the patronage of Richard Harding Watt, which includes The Old Croft.
