Lodge To Baynards Park

The Lodge to Baynards Park, built around 1850-1860, is a single-storey structure with attics, featuring a steeply pitched plain tiled roof and Roman cement render. It has a cruciform plan with triple diagonal stacks on a ridge plinth at the intersection of the two ranges. The gabled dormer is now shuttered. A decorative frieze of grapes and foliage bands runs around the eaves and across the ground floor, while various animals, some of which are heraldic, adorn the walls. There is a square bay window on the left-hand return front, which is currently blocked. The lodge includes a gabled porch with an architrave surround and a 4-centred arch over the door in the gable end, as well as a pentice extension across the right-hand return front. At the time of the re-survey, the building was empty and closed up.
