Description

The Lodge at Allanbay Park is a mid-19th century building with 20th-century extensions. It is constructed of red brick featuring diamond patterns of blue headers and stone quoins, topped with a tile roof that has several gabled ends. The original L-plan layout has become irregular due to extensions on the north, east, and south sides.

Architecturally, the lodge is designed in the Tudor style, and the extensions match this style. The building has two storeys and one storey sections, with three groups of two and three conjoined diagonal chimney shafts that have offset heads. It features a stone plinth and exposed rafter ends, along with 2 and 3-light casement windows from the 19th and 20th centuries that include glazing bars.

On the road front, the former lodge has a single bay gable on the left with a two-light window on the first floor set in a chamfered reveal, and a five-light canted bay window below. The right-hand section is set back and has a single bay with rendered, blocked openings. The entrance is located in the internal angle, accessed by two steps leading to a door in a chamfered reveal beneath a four-centred brick arch with a stone key, which is protected by a tiled, enclosed lean-to porch. There are single-storey extensions that are slightly set back on the left and a two-storey single bay extension that is set further back on the right. The interior has not been inspected.
