Description

Top Lodge is a mid 19th-century lodge constructed of colourwashed rendered brick with tile-hung gables and a timber verandah, topped with slate roofs. The building is 1½ storeys tall and features three bays, with a one-bay wing at the front center. On the ground floor, there is a canted bay window and a verandah supported by timber posts that wraps around the building. The canted bay has a projecting porch with a 19th-century four-panel door. The canted bay and the rest of the ground floor have paired sash windows with small edge panes. The three gables are tile-hung and feature four-light leaded lozenge pane oriel windows, along with ornately decorated bargeboards. There is a stack located where the ridges meet in the center and another on the rear wall of the end bays.
