Description
Cameleon Lodge is an estate lodge built in the early 19th century. It is constructed of brick, which is rendered and colourwashed, topped with a hipped Westmorland slate roof. The building features a plinth and deep moulded eaves with modillions. It has two storeys and a symmetrical facade with three bays in the center and one bay on each side. The lodge has a double depth, square plan with a rear wing.
Most of the windows are Gothick casements. The south front includes single-storey pavilions on either side, each with a pyramid roof and a casement window. The central porch is parapeted and has a round-headed doorway with a recessed door, flanked by single casements, and three casements above.
On the west front, there is a partly glazed lean-to in the left return angle, with a coped wall to the north. To the right of this, there is a door flanked by single casements, followed by a French window and another casement, with a 20th-century casement above. The east front features a single casement on each floor, with a 20th-century door in the return angle. The rear elevation has two glazing bar sashes and a 20th-century casement on the left, with three glazing bar sashes above.
Cameleon Lodge is part of the complete Estate Village designed by Earl Manvers of Thoresby Park between 1807 and 1812.
