The Lodge

The Lodge is a house, now partly used as a dentist’s surgery, dating from the early 19th century, although incorporating an 18th-century core, with a mid-19th century extension. It is constructed of brick with a graded slate roof. The building is two storeys high and originally had a four-window front, extended by one bay to the right in matching style. A central doorway is sheltered by a timber porch with chamfered posts supporting an entablature. The sash windows have flat-arched brick surrounds and are painted. A shallow full-height bow is situated in the gable return to the north, featuring a tripartite window on the ground floor which functions as French doors, with a canopy supported by cast-iron columns above. A rear wing may be from an earlier build and has three-light iron casement windows on both floors. A tall stair window with iron glazing bars is visible on the inner elevation. Axial stacks are present on both the main range and the wing. The interior was not inspected.
