Description
The Lodge at The Great Hospital is an early 19th-century single-storey lodge constructed of red brick with a hipped pantile roof. It features a one-window range that is adjacent to the south-west tower of the Church of St. Helen. The entrance door has intersecting ribs and is accompanied by a window with Y tracery and plain shutters to the right, as well as a smaller window to the left. Both windows have lattice leaded-lights and are topped with 2-centred heads.
