Welton Lodge And Welton Cottage

Welton Lodge and Welton Cottage are a detached villa, built around 1830 with later additions in 1860. The buildings are constructed of limestone ashlar, with some areas painted, and have a slate roof.

The main part of the villa is a long range with a full-height bow at the south-west end. The bowed section has an ashlar top floor, while the lower floors are in coursed stone. The top floor has twelve-pane sashes with a balconette, above blocked openings on the lowest floor, with a curved flush central eaves stack. To the right is a flat section of wall with a twelve-pane sash and a deep French casement with a plat surround and balconette, above a flat-roofed extension. The garden front features three windows: twelve-pane to the top floor, a blind centre window painted in, and an eight-pane sash to a balcony with a cast iron railing on the first floor, splayed and returning to the original hipped end, with twelve and nine-pane sashes.

Attached to this end is a lower wing with deep eaves to the end gable, above an arched margin-pane sash in a plat surround with imposts and a bracketed sill. Below that is a margin-pane sash with a cornice hood, Venetian sliding shutters, and a bracketed sill. There is a lean-to roof to the ground floor. An eaves stack with three flues is on one side, and a twelve-pane sash is above a panelled door on the other.

A long, rendered front to Lyncombe Vale features twelve-pane windows above six-pane fixed windows. Other windows include a twelve-pane sash, a blind light, a twelve-pane sash, and a small basement light. The boundary wall includes a doorway with broad jambs in pecked and margined masonry leading to a low, open pediment on brackets. A further doorway in the boundary wall, leading to an attached lobby, has a four-panelled gate and a flush door with a plain fanlight, under an inset stone arch on modelled corbels with spandrels, to a deep square opening and an open gabled pediment on modillions. The words "WELTON LODGE" are carved in bold, incised sans serif lettering. Pilasters are in pecked ashlar. A gate to Welton Cottage is located in the same wall to the left.

The interior of the buildings has not been inspected.
