Description
The north-east lodge of the demolished mansion Bifrons is a mid-19th century cottage orné located in the estate village of the Marquesses Conygham. It is a single storey with an attic, faced with rough plaster and topped with a tiled roof. The lodge features casement windows and has an octagonal section at the south-east end, which has a conical roof and an ornamental red brick chimney stack at its apex.
There is a doorway on the north-east side with a large gabled hood above it. On the south-east side, a porch with barleysugar columns supports a gable adorned with scalloped bargeboards, leading to a pointed doorway. The south-west side includes a small bay window topped with a gable. The central portion of the lodge is recessed and contains one window and a small gable, with the first floor oversailing on the south side.
At the north-west end, there is a projection that forms a T shape with the recessed center. This section has larger gable ends on the north and south, also featuring scalloped bargeboards, with a bay window below each on the ground floor. The north-west front of this portion has a central pointed doorway, flanked by two windows with dripmoulds above and two gabled dormers, with each window bay bordered by pilasters.
