Description
Main Lodge is a lodge cottage belonging to Old Warden Park, built in 1874 by Henry Clutton for Joseph Shuttleworth. It is constructed of yellow brick with stone dressings and features a tiled roof. The building has a two-room plan, is one storey high with attics, and is designed in the Jacobean style.
On the north elevation, there is a central half-canted porch with a segmental arched entrance that has a moulded surround and label, flanked by single lights on the side elevations. To the left, there is a two-light window that wraps around the corner to provide a single light to the east gable end. The parapet features square-headed arcading. The east gable end has single lights in both ground floor corners and a four-light window in the attic, topped with stone coping and a finial. The west gable end is similar to the east but has a four-light window at ground level instead of single lights. All windows have a three-centred head for each light and are adorned with moulded labels that merge into the wall at the stops. Each elevation has a stone band at the level of the hood mould and a moulded cornice at the first floor sill level. There is a rebuilt triple stack with diagonal shafts on the south elevation, along with a flat-roofed addition to the south.
