Description
South Lodge to Cromer Hall, including the entrance gate piers and boundary walls, is a 19th-century building constructed of knapped flint with ashlar limestone dressings. It features a plain-tile roof and tall brick chimney stacks with ribbed shafts and corbelled caps. The gables are adorned with decorative timber barge boards supported by short curved braces, and the apex of the principal south gable showcases decorative timber-framing.
The building has an L-shaped plan, with a taller principal range running east-west and a lower wing extending to the south. Designed in a Tudor Gothic style, it boasts steeply-pitched roofs and chamfered, mullion and transom windows. The main range is two storeys high, featuring two and three-light windows with flush stone surrounds and casement frames. The gable apex includes square framing with shaped diagonal bracing above a brattished storey beam. On the east elevation, where the main and subsidiary ranges meet, there is a single-storey gabled porch with transomed two-light windows on each side, which have cusped lights. At the south end of the south wing, a wide canted bay window is set beneath a steeply-pitched roof.
Access to the Lodge is through an entrance gateway flanked by tall gate piers made of ashlar limestone, each featuring inset panels of knapped flint and a moulded cornice, topped with a seated lion holding a shield displaying the Bond Cabbell coat of arms. Low, flanking walls of flint with red-clay copings extend from the piers, with the eastern wall curving to define the road frontage. The wall is shown on the map as an offset line, while the square gate piers are depicted as circles.
Access to the interior of the building has not been allowed.
