Willoughby House and Willoughby Lodge

Willoughby House and Willoughby Lodge are a farmhouse, likely dating from the 16th century, that was remodelled in the late 18th century and extended in the mid-19th century. The building is timber-framed with brick and rendered infill, rendered brick, and an old plain-tile roof with brick stacks. The original plan comprised two units, with a rear wing extended later. The front has two storeys and an attic, with three bays to the left representing the earlier section, and five windows in total. A 19th-century stone porch with Egyptian columns sits in front of a doorway located to the left of the centre. The windows on either side of the porch have 16-pane sashes, cornices, and panelled shutters. The first floor has three 12-pane sashes. Two later bays to the right with a gable outshut have four-pane sashes and stone sills on moulded corbels. The facade is covered in roughcast with broad masonry joints, and the roof is continuous with moulded eaves brackets, crested ridge tiles, a single dormer in the earlier section, and stacks to the right gable and to the right of the entrance. The left gable wall and rear have exposed heavy framing with curved braces. A tall timber-framed stair tower rises at the rear of the earlier range, with a low timber-framed wing returning to the left. The interior was not inspected but likely contains features of interest.
