Description
West Hall Lodge is a house that was formerly the north lodge to Whittington Hall. It was likely built in the 1890s by the architectural firm Paley and Austin, and it imitates the south lodge built in the 1830s by George Webster. The lodge is constructed of sandstone rubble and has a slate roof, featuring a single storey.
The east wall, which faces the drive, has one bay on each side of a central projection topped with a steep gable. The windows are chamfered and consist of two lights divided by a transom. The central projection includes a studded door with ornamental hinges, set within a chamfered surround that has a triangular head. Above the door is a blank square recess.
On the north wall, which faces the road, there is a gabled projection on the left that features a canted bay window with coping. This window has mullions and transoms, with six lights at the front and two lights on each canted side. To the right of this bay window is another window with two lights divided by a transom, and further right is a cross window, both of which have hoods. A chimney is located to the right of the gabled projection and on the right-hand gable.
