Masonic Lodge To Rear Of Wychwood Lodge Cottage

The Masonic Lodge, located to the rear of Wychwood Lodge Cottage, is a building that was converted from burgage outbuildings around 1890, and may have origins dating back to the 15th century. It is constructed of rubble with a Cotswold stone roof. The lodge consists of the rear wing of Wychwood Lodge Cottage, part of the courtyard cross-wing, and a southern wing. Access is through the passage of the courtyard cross-wing, previously through a Caernarvon-arch doorway to the left of the cross-wing. The building features irregular fenestration.

Inside, there is a central open-roofed hall that leads to the lodge on the right (south), which is also open-roofed and features arch-braced trusses that support a pointed barrel vault, with nail-head decoration on the trusses. To the north of the hall is the first floor of the rear wing of Wychwood Lodge Cottage, which includes three pairs of raised crucks and a central corbelled and hooded fireplace. The south end of the 'chapel' wing is made of cut and dressed stone, featuring an oculus and an archway below.
