North Lodge, Attached Former Pay Office and Yard with Storeshed and Closet

North Lodge, built in 1881 and designed by Alfred Waterhouse for the 1st Duke of Westminster, is a lodge featuring ashlar sandstone with roofs made of shaped red tiles. The structure includes a four-storey circular tower with an attached stair turret and single-storey hip-roofed wings to the north and east. There is a timber-framed boarded store-room under a lean-to tiled roof at the back of the tower. The walled yard and attached outbuildings contribute to a picturesque French design, which is richly detailed. Notable features include a tall rectangular stone chimney on the tower wall, a weathervane, shaped lead finials, and windows with shaped reveals, heads, and mullions. The cills are flush and steeply weathered, and the tower and turret windows have patterned leaded glazing. A lychgate with a small hipped roof on oak brackets leads to the yard, which has framed and boarded doors with ornate wrought iron hinges and a shaped wash-house chimney. Inside, there is a plain stone spiral stair (with the handrail removed) and moulded red pine cross-beams in the tower rooms, along with four-panel doors.
