Description

Cronkhill Lodge is an estate lodge built around 1802, likely designed by John Nash, with a small addition at the rear from the mid to late 19th century. The lodge is constructed of red brick and features a hipped slate roof. It has a unique Y-plan layout, with three wings extending from a hexagonal core. The building is two storeys high and includes a plinth, painted projecting eaves, a rendered stack at the rear, and an integral brick corner stack on the northwest wing. The core and wings have 2-light segmental-headed wooden casements, although the ground floor windows were renewed in the late 20th century with straight heads. There is also a half-glazed door from the 20th century in the southern wing. Cronkhill Lodge is noted for being a rare example of an unusual Y-plan lodge, with another example being Tern Lodge, which is also located in this parish.
