Description
Belmont Lodge, located at No 62 on West Bay Road, is a Grade II listed building dating from 1837. It was originally the lodge for Belmont House and was developed alongside "Portville" by Samuel Gundry junior, a member of a twine manufacturing family. The building features colour washed brick with a pitched roof covered in hexagonal slates. Notable architectural details include cut bargeboards and elaborate finials. It is a single-storey structure with casement windows that have fancy glazing bars and hoodmoulds. The wooden entrance porch has a lean-to slate roof and a door with two round-headed panels, eight quatrefoil lights, and a Gothick balustrade applied to the exterior below the dado level. Belmont Lodge is part of a group that includes Nos 48 to 56 (even), the coachhouses and stables of Nos 48 to 56, the dwarf wall and gates to the front gardens of Nos 48 to 62, as well as No 64 and No 64A.
