East Lodge

East Lodge is a gate lodge to Great Moreton Hall, dated 1858. It is constructed of coursed sandstone rubble with ashlar dressings and features a plain tile roof. The building has two storeys with single-storey wings. The front facing the drive includes a central semi-octagonal bay window that has a projecting plinth with a moulded top. There is a continuous band at the level of the sills of the ground floor windows, which consist of two casement lights on each face and are topped with Tudor hood moulds. Above these windows, a string course separates the ground floor from the first floor, which has single-light casement windows on each side, each with a gablet above featuring decorated bargeboards. At the apex of the central gable, there is an ashlar shield displaying the Ackers' arms and the date. The single-storey wings on either side have a single-light window in the center and a verandah supported by circular wooden posts, which hold hipped roofs. The roof features a central two-flue chimney stack along the ridge, with single-flue stacks on either side, all adorned with richly moulded Tudor flues made of terra-cotta. The rear of the lodge has a projecting 20th-century outshut on the ground floor and a single-light window in the center of the first floor.
