Description

Seymour Lodge is a house built around 1820 to 1840, possibly incorporating an earlier structure. It features a red brick front with ashlar dressings, rubble stone on other sides, and slate half-hipped roofs. The building is two storeys tall with an attic and has an L-shaped plan. The front has three windows with flush quoins, a string course, and small-paned casements set in flush stone surrounds. There are three-light windows on each side and a two-light window in the centre of the first floor above a half-glazed door, which has a beaded surround, an overlight, and a hood supported by brackets. The end walls are made of rubble stone, and the east end includes iron small-paned windows in brick surrounds. A long L-shaped rear wing has a catslide roof and a projection on the west side with a half-hipped gable. Small-paned iron casements are present throughout the building. Inside, there are similar chamfered and stopped beams. The house is said to have been a farmhouse known as Marsh Farm, dating back to the 17th century, but no clear evidence of this early date is visible, although a beam dated 1635 was removed in 1889.
