Description
Clifton Park Lodge and Northcote House, along with attached walls, piers, and railings, were built in the mid-19th century. The buildings are constructed of limestone ashlar with lateral and party wall stacks, and have a slate hipped roof. They are arranged in an L-shaped double-depth plan, representing an Italianate style.
The two linked elevations are each two storeys high, plus an attic and basement, with a four-window range. The facades are symmetrical, with projecting wings set at right angles. The house at the corner consists of two wings. Each facade features hipped roofs to the wings, a banded ground floor, a first-floor sill band, quoins to a cornice, and an attic storey with stone eaves brackets.
The left-hand return exhibits a semicircular-arched moulded doorway with a fanlight containing margin panes, and a two-leaf, half-glazed door. A single-storey porch in the angle between the two blocks has a parapet and balustraded steps leading to a semicircular-arched doorway with an eight-panel door, impost band, and a matching side window with casements. The windows are semicircular-arched with thin surrounds and sill blocks, housing sashes with horizontal bars. Triple windows are present on the wings, smaller windows in the attic, and paired windows between them, with blind panels above the attic. A balustrade runs below the ground-floor windows.
The north elevation includes ground-floor bays with balustrades above the wings, and a balustraded section with a raised attic to the right. The right-hand return features a central doorway and fenestration similar to the front wings. The tall stacks have vertical bands and cornices. The interior remains uninspected.
Attached rubble front garden walls are present, along with piers featuring oval panels and bracketed caps. Spear-headed basement area railings complete the subsidiary features.
