New Pale Lodge

New Pale Lodge is a former farmhouse, now a house, dated 1623, 1667, and 1718, with extensive 20th-century additions and alterations. It is constructed of dressed tooled buff local sandstone and has a Lakeland slate roof. The building features two projecting gable chimneys and has a T-shaped plan. The west front is two-storey with six bays. The left end has a massive stepped projecting stack, and the left three bays have inserted 20th-century iron casements in enlarged openings. The fourth bay contains an original bead-moulded doorcase with a lintel plaque reading "P" (for Whittingham and Elizabeth Pugh) and "W E 1718," alongside a 3-light chamfered stone mullioned window. The right end projects two bays forward on a chamfered plinth and has a 4-light chamfered mullioned and transomed window to the hall, as well as a 3-light mullioned fire window. The kneelered gable end has a circular light on either side of a projecting stack. The south front has a central projection, but all openings are inserted. There are 20th-century extensions to the rear.

Inside, the former hall to the right of the entrance features a bead-moulded stone fireplace with a slightly pointed head and a plaque on the lintel reading "1667" (for George and Elizabeth Pugh), along with some strapwork details. The ceiling has bead-moulded beams. A room to the rear has a reset stone fireplace with a chamfered surround and a lintel marked "WB" (for William Boulton) 1623. The room to the left of the entrance contains an enormous inglenook fireplace with a chamfered lintel and a slot light, as well as chamfered and stopped ceiling beams and chamfered joists.

The New Pale was established for the preservation of vert and venison in the early 17th century, and this lodge was one of only two permanent dwellings in Delamere Forest until the forest laws were repealed in 1812.
