Description

Court Lodge is a medieval 13th-century stone house that was altered in the 17th to 18th centuries. It has two storeys and attics, constructed from stone rubble with red brick window dressings and quoins, and patched with brick in some areas. The building features a very steeply-pitched hipped roof with smoke louvres and two gabled dormers. There are four casement windows with wooden mullions and transoms. At the south-west corner of the front, there is a stone porch with a pointed stone doorway, which has a dripstone above it and is topped by a timbered gable with red brick infilling. The north wall has brick chimney breasts, while the side elevation includes a trefoil-headed window. At the rear, there is a bricked-in stone archway. Inside, the lodge contains panelling and a panel of 12 carved relief heads, which may have been brought from Godinton Park.

Local climate

Court Lodge sits in one of the driest parts of the UK, with an average of 700 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 92% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 52% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 23 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 76% of listed buildings. Of these, 11 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
