Description

Smithwood Common Lodge is a lodge of 1897, likely designed by Philip Webb, the architect of Willinghurst House. It was built as an entrance feature to Willinghurst House. Constructed of red brick with blue brick detailing in English bond, it has a plain tile roof.

The lodge is single-storied, with a two-bay front and a further, lower bay to the rear, creating an L-shaped plan. It features leaded windows throughout. A pent roof porch gives access to an internal board door on the right side of the gabled right-hand bay. This bay has a canted bay window built on a brick buttress and supported by wooden brackets under a pent roof. Above the canted bay is a gable painted white, bearing the embossed date and initials "J C . Left R E Sā€. The left-hand bay has a narrow single-light window. The roof is hipped on the left side. Tall brick stacks have dentilled tables to the ridge of the left bay and to the rear of the right bay. The left return has paired windows to the central bay, a single window to the right bay, and a 20th-century window to the lower left-hand bay.

At the rear, the projecting bay on the right has weatherboarded rear walls and a left return, with a hipped roof. The left return is open, revealing board doors to three out-offices. The gable of the left-hand bay is also weatherboarded.

The lodge shares a similar design to Stroud Lodge but has undergone fewer alterations.
