Crannum Lodge

Crannum Lodge, located on Edgerton Road, dates from the mid-19th century and is constructed of hammer-dressed stone with ashlar dressings and a pitched tile roof. The building is two storeys and has attics. Stone brackets are present at the eaves, and a string course runs along the first floor. The central feature is a three-storey tower with a machicolated and modillioned eaves cornice, and a string course beneath. The ground floor entrance has a door with six moulded panels and a stilted pointed arch on colonnettes with crocketed capitals. A gabled portal with a chamfered two-centred arch on columns with crocketed capitals provides access. The first floor features an oriel window with a mullion and transom; each light has cusped plate tracery, stained glass, and glazing bars arranged in geometrical patterns, and is topped with a hipped stone roof. The second floor has a three-light window with cusped lights, colonnettes, and a hoodmould. To the north of the tower is a semi-octagonal projection with a hipped roof and two-light stone mullioned windows, with the ground floor lights separated by colonnettes with crocketed capitals. Between this projection and the tower is a range of two-light stone mullioned windows. To the south of the tower is one two-light stone mullioned window on the first floor, and two tripartite sashes on the ground floor, each pair separated by a colonnette with a crocketed capital, and each pair crowned by a two-centred relieving arch and hoodmould; the tympana have blind traceried panelling. Attic dormers have tile-hung cheeks and pitched tiled roofs with wooden finials and trefoil-headed sashes. A flight of 14 steps leads to the entrance of No 6, flanked by parapets with chamfered coping.
