Description

Garden Lodge and West Lodge at Coles Park is a gatelodge, now divided into two houses, built in 1909, possibly incorporating a 19th-century lodge, for the Greg family of Coles Park. The building features roughcast on a stucco plinth and has hipped slate roofs with wide eaves overhangs and plastered soffits. It is designed in the Queen Anne style and consists of a large single-storey cruciform layout facing north.

The central block is taller and square, topped with pyramidial roofs and a central red brick chimney that has four tall grouped octagonal shafts with moulded bases and spurred caps. A lower axial rear wing extends to the south. There are half-octagonal projections on the north and east sides, each with windows on every face, and a semicircular classical porch on the west side, supported by slender Doric columns and pilasters, raised on a platform with two semi-circular moulded stone steps. The entrance features twin plank doors, and there is a two-panel oak door in front of the north projection. The building is adorned with narrow flush box sash windows that have segmental headed lights, matching the openings and featuring drips above.
