Description
Laundry Cottage, now a house, Laundry Lodge, and garden wall, dates from around 1860. It is constructed of ashlar with shaped tile roofs. The building features coped gables with kneelers and mannerist style orb finials, as well as several stacks and a cupola on the right projecting gable of the house. Moulded eaves bands are set on plinths.
The house is a single storey plus attic, consisting of 7 bays. It has a single central projecting bay with a shaped gable, flanked by single bays that have a balustraded and decorative parapet, along with single projecting gabled bays and further single bays. There are three 20th-century casement windows. To the left, there is a single canted casement window and another 20th-century casement. To the right, there is a single 4-light cross window and a single 3-light mullion casement. Above, a single central 2-light casement with a mullion is set in a strapwork surround. Each outer gable apex features a single casement.
To the left, set back, is a coped wall with an entrance. Projecting from this is a single storey plus attic, 3 bay lodge, which has a single central projecting gabled bay. The lodge features a central single canted casement window, a Tudor style arched doorway with a wooden door to the left, and single 2-light casements with mullions to the right and above. Most openings have drip moulds.
To the left is a coped wall, and projecting from this is a taller coped wall with a decorated cornice and five entrances with wooden doors or iron gates, the outer and central entrances being larger. Each entrance is flanked by single rusticated pilasters, some with flat arches above and some topped with urns. At each of the outer angles, there is a single pilaster.
