Description
The Lodge is a house, probably dating to the early 19th century, with additions and alterations made in the mid-19th century and some later modifications. It was originally a lodge to Pentillie Park and has since been used as a single house, and formerly as two separate dwellings. The building is constructed of slatestone rubble with granite dressings, incorporating granite features likely from the 17th century. It has a slate roof with raised coped verges to the left gable, crested ridge tiles, and gable ends. The main range features gable end stacks: one with a rubble shaft and the other with a rendered shaft.
The architectural style is Tudor Gothic. The building presents an asymmetrical facade. A two-storey gabled porch is located to the left, featuring a coped verge and kneelers. The porch's ground floor has a four-centred arched, chamfered granite doorway with recessed spandrels containing roundels, and a hood mould. Above is a two-light, chamfered granite casement also with a hood mould. A lower doorway of similar design is on the porch's left side. The inner doorway has a depressed four-centred arch, roll mouldings, recessed spandrels, and a plain door. To the right of the porch, a ground-floor two-light chamfered granite casement is present, with a matching window above it on the first floor. A one-room plan addition is on the far left; it is two-storeys high and includes a tall, four-centred arched, convex-moulded doorway leading to an open area at ground level, a two-light chamfered granite casement with a hood mould to the right, and a granite string course above. A single-storey lean-to and a short range of single-storey outbuildings are located at the right end. The left-hand side fronts the road and is open at ground level with a moulded granite doorway and cast iron railings with trefoil finials; there is a string course above and a two-light chamfered granite casement with a hood mould on the first floor. The rear of the single-storey addition mirrors the front, featuring a doorway and casement. Inside the open-ended passage, a three-light granite casement is visible. At the rear of the main house, a brick lean-to contains a hollow-chamfered, four-centred arched doorway. The ground floor has a canted bay with a three-light chamfered granite window, a two-light granite casement, and a 20th-century window. The rear porch has a raised parapet with coping; it features a four-centred arched granite doorway and an inner plain door. The first floor has two two-light granite casements and a central 20th-century window. The interior has not been inspected.
