Description
South Lodge is one of a pair of lodges located on either side of the entrance driveway, situated on the south side. It was built in the early 19th century, with some 20th-century alterations and extensions. The lodge features yellow brickwork in Flemish bond, with arches over the ground-floor openings that are recessed at the front, and a plain stone band at the impost level. The roof is steeply pitched and hipped, with eaves supported by coupled modillion brackets.
The structure has an almost-square pavilion form, displaying a symmetrical design. It includes a sash window on the east front, above which is a Coade stone panel depicting putti cutting and collecting sheaves of corn. The entrance elevation, which faces the driveway, has an upper casement window above a 20th-century brick porch. At each corner of the lodge, there are piers, with the rear pier marking the gateway.
To the south side, there is a single-storey 20th-century wing made of brick and tile. In front of this wing, a low wall curves from the corner of the pavilion to stop at an outer pier of yellow brickwork topped with a stone cap. Above the wall, there is a decorative metal rail.
