Description

Staghills Lodge is a gate lodge to the former Staghills House, which has since been demolished. It was built in the 19th century and features rock-faced sandstone with a steeply-pitched slate roof. The chimney stack at the junction of the ridges has Tudor-style decorated clustered flues, slim gable chimneys, and a corbelled extruded side wall chimney. The lodge has an L-shaped plan with two short wings at right angles and a diagonal porch in the angle, along with a projecting bay at the rear of the left return wall.

Set back below road level, the front is single storey while the rear has two storeys with a basement. The building showcases elaborate Gothic style elements, including stepped dripbands on two levels and a parapet that continues over the gables as stepped coping, topped with small flat-topped pinnacles. The porch features a stepped embattled parapet and a Tudor-arched doorway with shields on each jamb. To the right, the right wing has a triangular window with trefoils, and the wall above is steeply gabled with an attached shaft that ends in a flat-topped pinnacle. The gable of the left wing has chamfered corners, and both gables include a stepped triple-light window with traceried trefoil-headed lights. The left return wall has a chamfered segmental-headed basement door, above which is a corbelled chimney adorned with a shield and a decorated top. The projecting rear bay features a stepped triple-light window.
