Description
Southwick Lodge is a villa built around the 1830s, with later additions and alterations, including restorations around 1990. The front facade is finished in stucco over brick, while the sides are painted brick. It features a hipped slate roof and a tall brick stack on the right end, which has an oversailing course and pot. The building has a double depth plan with a central staircase hall and a service range at the rear on the right.
It stands two storeys high and has three first-floor windows. The first floor features 6/6 sash windows, while the ground floor has renewed tripartite windows with a 9/9 sash between two 3/3 sashes. All windows have plain reveals and sills. The central entrance consists of a four-raised-and-fielded-panel door with a fanlight that has radial glazing bars, set in a solid porch with a round-arched opening supported by imposts, a keystone, and a cornice. The returns of the building have 8/8 sash windows.
Inside, the villa retains original joinery and plasterwork, including a dogleg staircase with a wreathed handrail and stick balusters, panelled shutters and shutter boxes, marble fireplaces, and a stone flagged floor in the hall.
