Description
Costessey Lodge, formerly known as Easton Lodge, dates from around 1830 and features a 20th-century extension on the side. It is likely designed by J C Buckler. The house is built from red brick and moulded gault brick, topped with a slate roof. This Gothic revival structure has an L-shaped plan and includes a polygonal turret at the re-entrant angle. It stands one and a half storeys tall, with steep-pitched roofs and tall moulded, crenellated chimneys. On the ground floor, there are two moulded gault brick arched and cusped mullion and transom windows, while the other windows are single light and cusped. A triangular moulded gault brick oriel window and a triangular external chimney stack, also made of moulded gault brick, are notable features. The main and dormer gables are adorned with pinnacles. Costessey Lodge was formerly one of the lodges to Costessey Hall.
