Description

The Lodge is a small dwelling built around 1790, likely associated with Sir John Soane. It is constructed of gault brick and features a slate roof. The building has a T-shaped plan and is a single storey. A pedimented jetty is supported by two Ionic columns. The window and door openings are semicircular headed, and the windows include glazing bars. The roof has a shallow hipped design with projecting eaves, and there is an axial stack. A 20th-century extension has been added to the rear.

Local climate

The Lodge sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 700 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 91% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 95% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 28 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 70% of listed buildings. Of these, 15 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.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
