Description
The Lodge is a detached cottage built in the mid-19th century, likely around the same time as the east front of Creech Grange. Designed in a "Tudor" style, it features stone walls and a stone slate roof with coped gables. The building has stone stacks with moulded caps and an L-shaped plan. It stands two storeys tall and has a 4-centred arched doorway. Both the ground and first floors have one 3-light mullioned window with arched lights. This cottage served as the former lodge to Creech Grange and is noted for its picturesque appearance.
