Description
Sarsden Glebe Lodge is an entrance lodge built around 1818 by G.S. Repton, inspired by a design by his father for a pair of lodges on the Isle of Wight. The building features roughly coursed limestone rubble with quoins and ashlar dressings, and has a hipped concrete tile roof. It is designed in a T-plan and is a single storey.
At the front, there is a catslide lean-to supported by wooden posts, which has fretted bargeboards on a roughly central gable. The entrance includes a segmental-headed nail-studded plank door with a narrow rectangular leaded casement window to the left. The end wall has a 2-light round-headed leaded window with voussoirs, and there is a plain leaded casement window in the projecting range. A stone ridge stack, which was rebuilt in the late 20th century, is present on the main range.
There are 20th-century additions to the rear and right that are not of special architectural interest. The lodge closely resembles an earlier drawing by G.S. Repton of the paired lodges designed by his father at the entrance to St. John's on the Isle of Wight, which have since been demolished.
