Description
Burrow Lodge is a lodge built in 1835, featuring a datestone with the initials G B and the name Burrow Lodge on each gable end. It was constructed using timbers from the Bellerophon, a ship that was broken up in 1832, by the ship's surgeon. The building is made of stucco on what is likely rubble, and it has very steep dry slate roofs with projecting eaves and verges, along with shaped barge boards, particularly on the lower gable at the front. There are brick stacks at each end. The lodge is designed in a simple Gothic style and has a small rectangular plan with minor extensions. It stands two storeys tall, with part of the first floor in the roof space, and features pointed-arched windows. The central window on the front gable is shaped like a cross, while the ground floor has two windows with glazing bars and intersecting tracery, along with a lean-to porch on the left side. The left-hand gable end has similar windows, with two on each floor and two blind windows at higher levels. The interior has not been inspected.
