Description
Bedwell Lodge is a house dating to the early to mid-17th century, with significant alterations in the early 19th century and later changes in the late 19th and 20th centuries. The front of the house has a ground floor of red brick dating to the 17th century, above which is a first floor clad in weatherboarding. Distinctive plastered gable ends feature angled brick courses. The front facade includes three recessed sash windows and a half-glazed door. The garden elevation reveals an early 19th-century weatherboarded upper floor with two eight-pane sash windows, along with canted ground floor window bays and a bracketed porch. A slate roof covers the structure.
A substantial early to mid-17th-century staircase is located at the rear centre of the house, rising to the attic, and is characterised by plain round balusters and rustication to the newels. The first-floor landing features a wooden door arch of the same date, exhibiting chamfered spandrels and a finial key block. The ground-floor rooms on the right-hand side retain ovolo-moulded beams, while a rear wall contains a 17th-century four-light mullioned window, now enclosed within an outshut.
