Annesley Lodge

Annesley Lodge is a detached house, built between 1895 and 1896 by CFA Voysey for his father, the Rev Charles Voysey. The house was later converted into flats in 1983. It is roughcast with stone dressings and has tiled hipped roofs with projecting swept eaves and tall roughcast chimney stacks. The building follows an L-shaped plan situated along the rear of a corner plot. The walls are battered and feature sloping buttresses to the returns. It is two storeys high. The rear ranges have bands of five and four window casements, flanking a central four-window band to the canted angle bay. The central entrance has a prostyle portico flanked by two slit windows, with a boarded door featuring an ironwork heart motif. Stone windows have mullions and leaded panes; a five-window projecting bay is located to the right of the entrance. The first floor has a continuous stone sill band. The return to Kidderpore Avenue has bands of six-window casements to the first floor and a slightly recessed ground floor. The interior was not inspected.
