Description

Garth House and The Lodge are two houses that were originally one house built in the 18th century. The exterior is made of painted brick and features a plain tile roof. The building has a central staircase plan and is two storeys high, with an attic and cellar. It has a five-window range, with 6/6 sash windows set in moulded cases that have cambered heads, all under gauged brick segmental arches. There is a storey band and moulded wood eaves with a boarded soffit. The roof includes three dormers with early 20th-century 3/3 sash windows in moulded cases.

The central entrance features a six-panel door with a blocked overlight, all within a moulded case, and is flanked by 6/6 sash windows with stone sills throughout. The left gable reveals rubble at the eaves level, while the right gable is made of painted brick and has a storey band at the first-floor level. At the rear, there is a two-storey wing that continues the storey band and contains two 2/2 sash windows, along with an early 20th-century three-tier canted bay with an imitation timber-frame superstructure and an early 20th-century dormer with a 3/3 sash window. There is also a further wing with a single-storey rubble addition.
