Description

Forest Lodge is a lodge built in the 1830s. It features a flint plinth with brick rendered walls and a thatched roof. Designed in a Gothic style, it has two and three-light pointed cast iron windows. The entrance has bevelled walls and an arched door set behind a rustic tree-trunk veranda. The building has a deep eaves overhang, a thatched dormer, and a central round flint chimney stack.

It experiences an average of 31 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 62% of listed buildings. Of these, 16 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
