Lodge Farmhouse

Lodge Farmhouse is a farmhouse, now a house, dating from the early 18th century, with possible earlier elements. It is built of limestone rubble with ashlar dressings and features an old plain-tile roof with stone and brick stacks. The building has an L-plan and is two storeys high. The front has a six-panel door flanked by windows, with additional first-floor windows to the right and above the door. The openings are topped with stone flat arches. A large projecting stone chimney on the right end wall has many weathered offsets and is likely an earlier feature. The roof is hipped. At the rear, there is an outshut with a stone stack rising through a catslide roof and a two-storey wing. The interior has not been inspected. The farmhouse was formerly the Lodge of the Royal Forest of Stowood and may include parts of a building mentioned in 1640 and 1660.
