Description
Stockbridge Lodge is a Grade II listed building located on Burnley Road in Padiham. It was built around 1849-51 as the lodge to the park of Gawthorpe Hall, originally known as Gawthorpe West Lodge, and is believed to have been designed by Sir Charles Barry, who made alterations to Gawthorpe Hall during that period. The lodge is constructed of sandstone ashlar and features a slate roof.
It has a rectangular plan with three bays, including a canted bay window on the right side, a square porch at the front, and a square bay at the back. The building is two storeys high and has a moulded string course on the ground floor. On the first floor, there is a sill band and a cornice topped with a parapet adorned with lozenge-shaped balusters, similar to those found on Gawthorpe Hall. The parapet projects forward over the bay window. The windows are designed with two lights and feature ovolo mullions.
Chimney stacks are present at each corner, each with miniature clasping pilasters. The porch includes an inset arch supported by imposts, and its parapet displays the Shuttleworth coat of arms, topped with a finial.
