GREAT BARTON THE STREET St. John's Well Cottage (The Lodge)

II

A former lodge cottage to Barton Hall. Early C19. Single storey: the main cottage hexagonal in form with conical roof, linked with another gabled range set sideways-on to the street. In random kidney flint, with red brick dressings in Tudorstyle and thatched roofs. The main cottage has a central chimney-stack and paired casement windows with continuous hoodmoulds, the lights divided by 2 vertical bars, with a central transome. One rear window retains pintle hinges. Blocked original doorway with hoodmould: the present C20 entrance door is in the linking section between the 2 parts of the cottage. The adjoining building is in the same materials, and has bargeboards carved in a Vitruvian scroll pattern with a deep hanging finial at the apex; the upper part of both front and rear gables is infilled with an unusual arrangement of small interwoven branches to give a rustic effect.
