Description

The Lodge is a lodge cottage dating from the early 19th century. It is constructed of rendered brick and has a slate roof. The building is single storey with a basic rectangular plan, featuring slightly later extensions to the north and west. It has twin gables on the south and east sides, adorned with fluted Gothic bargeboards and hanging finials at the apexes. Each front includes oriel bays topped with fishscale slate roofs and cast-iron casements with lozenge-shaped leading. The entrance features a nail-studded door with moulded fillets, a moulded architrave, and a dripmould. A central white brick chimney stack has three shafts with lattice ornamentation set on a decorated rectangular base. The interior has not been inspected.

It experiences an average of 36 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 62% of listed buildings. Of these, 19 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.
