Eaton Lodge (Number 44)

Eaton Lodge (Number 44) is a pair of semi-detached villas, currently used as a house, school, and flat. Built around 1838, the building features pinkish-brown brick with stucco facades and a Welsh slate roof in a Neo-Tudor style. The plan is double-depth.

The exterior is two storeys high and includes four first-floor windows, with the end windows projecting and gabled. There are single-storey entrance bays set back on either side. The entrances have a flight of seven and five steps leading to four-panel doors with Gothic tracery; the right door is part-glazed between sidelights, while the left door features a four-centred overlight with Gothic glazing, all within solid porches that have chamfered and moulded four-centred openings. The left gable has barge-boards, while the right is embattled.

The main range has a moulded plinth. The projections feature two-storey canted bays; the left bay has 4/4 windows between 2/2 sashes on each floor, with chamfered sills and tooled surrounds topped with a frieze and modillion cornice. The right canted bay has cusped lancets with diamond lattice casements and Gothic glazing in the heads, along with margin-lights in tooled surrounds and chamfered sills. Above the ground-floor windows is a band of quatrefoils, and above the first floor, there is a frieze and cornice decorated with fleurons and battlements. The left side has four 2/2 sashes with chamfered surrounds and sills under hollow-moulded hoods, while the right side features four pairs of similar Gothic lancets and a chamfered first-floor band. Decorative barge-boards with finials adorn the gables, and there are tall octagonal stacks with cornices, three on the left, four in the centre, and two on the right. The right return has similar two- and three-light Gothic windows.

The interior has been partially inspected. Number 44 contains four Gothic-panel doors and shutters on most windows, some featuring Gothic panelling. The rear ground-floor room includes a Gothic fireplace. There is a dogleg staircase with stick balusters and a wreathed handrail, along with cornices that have modillions and fleurons.
