Chinthurst Hill Lodge

Chinthurst Hill Lodge is a lodge dating to 1897, designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens. It was an early work for Lutyens and situated within a terraced garden designed by Gertrude Jekyll. The lodge is constructed of sandstone rubble to the lower portion and pebbledash above, with a hipped plain tiled roof and a gablet on the right side. It has tall end stacks, diagonally positioned, with corbelled tops to the left and an end stack to the right. Built into a hillside, the lodge features a square bay to the right and a recessed ground floor to the left, with the first floor supported by a braced, tapering post in the left corner. A moulded lintle beam sits above the ground floor entrance. Leaded casement windows are set within stone surrounds, and the first floor features stone mullions. There are two ground floor windows, one within the square bay beneath a tile-on-edge course. A door is located on the ground floor to the left. A hipped roof range extends to the rear.
