Description

This lodge was built between 1876 and 1878 by Alfred Waterhouse, and subsequently altered in the 20th century. It is one of five lodges constructed for Silwood Park. The lodge is built of red brick in a Flemish bond pattern, with darker bricks used as horizontal bands. The steeply pitched tiled roof has crested ridge tiles. It has a T-shaped plan with one and two storeys.

The exterior features a projecting, weathered plinth, sash windows with segmental-arched heads, and a central chimney with an offset head. One gable has a corbelled first floor and kneelers, with distinctive toothed and dentilled brickwork under the verges. The south-east front has a two-bay gable on the right and a single-storey section with a planked entrance door on the left. The interior has not been inspected.
