Description

Henley Lodge is a detached house, now used as offices, built between 1840 and 1850. It is constructed from limestone ashlar and features a shallow-pitched slate roof that is hipped to the right, with wide bracketed eaves and moulded stacks that have four shafts each. The building has a double depth plan and stands two to three storeys high with an irregular six-window front. The windows are plate glass sash type, with raised eared architraves and a sill band on the upper floors. The ground floor has raised surrounds and a cornice on moulded consoles, along with a platband.

To the right of the centre, there is a large three-storey belvedere flanked by stacks and plain clasping pilasters. This belvedere has a bracketed sill band for a three-over-three pane sash window on the second floor, and a cornice without consoles above the first-floor window, which opens onto a balcony with a pierced stone parapet and paired stone brackets above a tripartite ground floor window. To the left of the belvedere, there is a projecting single-storey enclosed porch that features a cornice, blocking course, panelled pilasters, and a flat-arched recess over a semicircular arched opening with moulded imposts.

The interior has not been inspected. Henley Lodge is a notable example of early Victorian Italianate Classicism, reflecting a blend of Goodridge's distinctive style with more traditional Late Georgian forms. HR Ricardo, possibly the first owner, died in 1860 and is buried in Lansdown Cemetery. In 1920, the house was owned by Sir John Scott Caesar Hawkins, the 5th Baron Kelston.
