Description
This is a former lodge, dating from around 1800 with later additions. It’s constructed of colourwashed brick with a thatched roof. The building has a ‘T’ shape and is one and a half storeys high, with a 20th-century single-storey extension to the west. It may have been designed as a "Cottage Ornée" and is possibly linked to Humphry Repton’s early work at Catton Hall. A cross-wing was added in the 19th century.
A blocked doorway, featuring a pointed arch between canted bays, is located on the south side. The building has hipped roofs and three-light casement windows with intersecting tracery, wrought iron lights with octagonal lead glazing, and pointed brick arches. A gabled wall of the cross-wing projects, featuring three-light casement windows with pointed arches and hood moulds at ground floor level, and a two-light casement window at first floor level. Gabled porches with rustic posts and braces are present on the east and north sides. A former carriage drive entrance is now used as a meter cupboard. The north elevation features central double doors flanked by two-light windows with reticulated lead glazing, intersecting tracery, and two-centred arches. A gabled dormer houses a two-light casement window with lead glazing, and there’s a central axial stack. Inside, there’s a 19th-century staircase, "Gothick" doors, and a 19th-century fireplace with reeded pilasters and paterae stops.
