Description
The Lodge is an early 19th-century lodge, with a mid-to-late 19th-century two-storey extension to the rear. A late 20th-century single-storey addition to the south-west corner is not part of the listed building. Designed in a Domestic Revival style, the lodge is constructed of squared and coursed limestone rubble, with a slate roof, the principal (east) elevation and porch featuring scalloped slates. It has a roughly T-shaped plan, comprising the main range with a projecting porch to the east, and the later rear extension to the west.
The lodge is one and a half storeys high. The east elevation displays timber casement windows with diamond-leaded lights set within round-arched heads with chamfered spandrels (the leadwork to the ground-floor windows is a later modification). Gables feature applied timber framing and decorative bargeboards with pyramidal finials and multi-faceted pendants, supported on shaped timber brackets.
The east elevation is asymmetrical, with an eight-light mullion-and-transom bay window to the left and a three-light gabled dormer window above. A projecting gabled porch is positioned to the right, built on a dwarf wall with offsets and four round-arched openings. The porch has a geometric tiled floor, and a Tudor-arched doorway with foliate ironwork spandrels leads to the main entrance, featuring a decorative iron door knocker and letter box. The bargeboards of the porch and dormer feature a curving design with interspersed berries.
The north and south elevations of the main range have a three-light window on the ground floor and a three-light oriel window on the first floor, both supported on four timber corbels and featuring decorative bargeboards with a cusped S-shape design and a leaf motif at the ends.
The rear extension is set back and built of larger blocks of coursed limestone. The north elevation has a ground-floor two-light window within a stone, eared and shouldered architrave. The west gabled elevation of the extension has plain bargeboards and a three-light window with an ashlar surround. A former doorway has been altered into a two-light window, and the original door appears to have been reused in the excluded single-storey addition.
The interior features a quarry-tiled floor to the hall, a staircase with a steeply chamfered, narrow newel post, dado-height panelling, window seats, plank and batten doors, and ceiling beams.
