Description
Cemetery Lodge, built in 1866 by Walter Hanstock, is an asymmetrical two-storey building constructed from pitched faced stone with quoins and ashlar dressings. It features a steeply pitched slate roof adorned with gable copings, gablets, and decorative iron finials at the apex and eaves. The near-central square tower has a tall sprocketed slate roof with ironwork at the top. To the left of the tower is a gabled crosswing, and there is a single-storey wing at the rear.
The internal porch at the base of the tower has a pointed arch and two very slender lancet windows on the first floor, which are topped with a triple hood mould featuring foliated stops and a central foliated crest. Above, there is a blind five-foiled light on the second tier of the tower with a central shield. To the left, a three-light canted bay window has simple traceried heads on the side lights, and a small gabled dormer is positioned to the right. The right gable includes a square bay with a three-light window above, featuring ogre heads, and a blind gothic arch with a trefoil above it. The left elevation has a projecting chimney breast with twin ashlar stacks.
