The Lodge

The Lodge is a building located on Station Road in Little Massingham, constructed around 1904-1905 by architects Edmund Wimperis and Best. This lodge, designed in the Edwardian neo-Vernacular Freestyle, is made of red brick with a red tiled roof and features one and a half storeys across three bays. The south front includes two ground floor windows and two attic gables, all fitted with three-light wooden casements that have glazing bars.

A central entrance is characterized by a concave bowed rubbed brick apse, which houses a braided and partially glazed door beneath a pentice supported by a wrought-iron tie. Above the windows and pentice, there is a leaded stringcourse label. The roof is a marisard style, featuring a central wooden moulded eaves gable that spans nearly the entire facade, with two separate hips above each gable window and tiled apexes. The end gables are adorned with raised lozenge patterns, tiled surfaces, moulded eaves, and two end stacks. This building is noted for exemplifying a style that does not adhere to a specific prototype, unlike the nearby Little Massingham House.
