Description
North Lodge is a lodge for Rushmore House, built in 1886 for General Pitt-Rivers. It features a combination of ashlar and timber-framing with various patterns of brick noggins, topped by a tiled roof with decorative brick stacks. The building is two stories high and has a one-window front that faces the drive.
To the left, there is a porch with a Tudor-arched opening and a cross window that has arched lights and decorative leading. Behind this is an inner Tudor-arched planked doorway with ornamental hinges. To the right, there is a square bay that includes a 4-light mullioned and transomed window with arched lights. The first floor is timber-framed and partly jettied, showcasing a 5-light wooden mullioned and transomed window with decorative leading. Above this, the gable features heraldic arms with foliage and the date 1886 in terracotta, along with attractive cusped bargeboards.
The right side of the lodge has an external ashlar stack with a decorated brick stack, while the left side features a 5-light mullioned and transomed window and two 3-light wooden mullioned windows on the timber-framed first floor, with lead downpipes. The rear of the building has a large external stack and stone or wooden windows. The interior has not been inspected. North Lodge is part of a picturesque group that includes the Jubilee Room and the entrance gates and walls.
