Tudor Lodge And Attached Garden Wall

Tudor Lodge is a house dating from the late 16th century, with alterations made in the mid-19th century. It is timber framed and sits on a sandstone plinth, topped with a plain tile roof that features a central brick stack. The building has two storeys and follows a lobby entrance plan. The west elevation consists of three symmetrical bays, with a central two-storey gabled porch that has a slight jetty on the upper floor. The open ground floor porch has a four-centred arch and balustraded sides, and it contains a heavy studded plank door set within a four-centred arched doorway. Above the porch is a 2-light casement window, and on either side of the porch are two tiers of 19th-century 4-light casements, each with diagonal tension braces above to support the frame.

In front of the house is a brick garden wall that is slightly ramped and features rounded copings. The box framing is visible on the other elevations, although it is obscured at the rear by a later wing that is not of special interest. Inside, the house has exposed beams and a four-centred arched stone chimneypiece, with a cupboard to the right that has carved panels. Another room contains a fireplace with a bressumer and the original winder staircase located to the right, behind the stack. The first-floor rooms have moulded four-centred arched chimneypieces with panelled friezes above, and there is a smaller four-centred arched chimneypiece in the room above the porch. The roof structure consists of a two-bay double purlin design.
