Grand Lodge To South South West Of Heaton Hall With Screen Walls And Wall Attached To West

The Grand Lodge, located to the south-southwest of Heaton Hall, was built around 1807 by Lewis Wyatt. It serves as an entrance gateway and lodge to Heaton Hall and is constructed from sandstone ashlar. The design features a triumphal arch flanked by small pavilions. The giant round-headed archway includes an impost band and a scrolled keystone, positioned between pairs of giant Tuscan three-quarter columns. Above the arch is an entablature that features a moulded cornice and a parapet with a panelled rectangular upstand at the center. The single-storey flat-roofed lodges each have one window on either side, which are now blocked. The cornice continues from the impost band, and the entrances are located under the arch, with doorways set behind Tuscan screens featuring columns distyle in antis.
