Description

Lancaster Cemetery Lodge is a building associated with Lancaster Cemetery, which opened in 1855. It is likely designed by Edward Paley. The lodge is constructed from squared coursed sandstone with ashlar dressings and features slate roofs with coped gables and kneelers. The building has a T-plan layout, consisting of a two-storey cross-wing on the left with an attic, and a one-storey range on the right, also with an attic.

In the Gothic Revival style, the cross-wing has a gable wall with one bay, featuring a canted bay window that includes four lights with transoms and trefoiled heads in the upper lights. The first-floor window has two lights with a transom, trefoiled upper lights, and a trefoiled opening beneath a pointed hoodmould that extends around the wing as a string course. The gable is coped with kneelers.

At the angle between the cross-wing and the main range, there is a single-storey porch with a parapet decorated with blind foiled recesses. The porch doorway is moulded and pointed, topped with a hoodmould, and the door is fitted with wrought-iron strap hinges. To the right, the main range features a window similar to the first-floor window of the cross-wing and a hipped dormer that lights the upper storey. The right-hand gable wall has coping with kneelers and a canted single-storey bay window. The left-hand return wall of the cross-wing includes two hipped attic dormers, and the rear wall has a chimney.
