Number 2 and Attached Boundary Wall

Number 2 is a lodge built in the mid 19th century, accompanied by an attached boundary wall. The structure is made of narrow, snecked sandstone with chamfered quoins and ashlar dressings. It features wide copings on the gables and a single ridge stack with decorative corbelled capping, topped by a Welsh slated roof. The house is designed in an L-shape and has deep, open-bed pediments on each gable.

The front elevation, facing west, has two storeys with an advanced pedimented gable on the left side. To the right, there is an open integral porch with a semicircular-arched opening that has a moulded arched head. The doorway is set back and features a semicircular fanlight above a four-panel door. Above this, there is an ashlar storey band with a blind plaque set within a moulded surround. The left gable includes a ground-floor canted bay window and a central first-floor single-light window with a semicircular head, linked to the base of the pediment by a band. The projecting sill has a cast-iron window box holder. The sash windows do not have glazing bars, except for the main window in the bay, which is a two-over-two pane sash. The gable on the south elevation is similarly detailed but has a flat-headed opening on the ground floor. The rear elevation includes a door and window opening on the ground floor, along with a shallow lean-to in the southeast angle.

The lodge is complemented by a contemporary stone wall with moulded ashlar coping, which is attached to the south of the entrance via 20th-century replacement gates. This wall is stepped to accommodate changes in ground level and helps to enclose the garden. The interior has not been inspected. It is believed that this building was constructed as a replacement for an earlier lodge to Hurdsfield House, which was built by the Brocklehurst family, known for their silk manufacturing and contributions to Macclesfield in the mid 19th century.
