Description

The lodge to Great Chalfield Manor, built around 1910 by Sir Harold Brakspear for Robert Fuller, is an L-plan structure made of coursed rubble stone with a stone slate roof and ashlar stacks. It is a single storey with an attic. The gabled wing facing the drive features a moulded Tudor-arched doorway with a ribbed door hoodmould that has lozenge terminals. To the right of the doorway is an arched single light, and above it on the first floor is a 4-light mullioned casement with arched lights and a hoodmould. The gable of the roof has a saddlestone, and the left return includes a single light. The right return has a 3-light mullioned casement on the ground floor and a 2-light casement on the first floor, both with a hoodmould. The left-hand rear wing contains a 2-light mullioned casement and a single light on the ground floor, with another 2-light casement on the first floor, also featuring a hoodmould. There is a single-storey rear wing with both single and 2-light mullioned casements. Although the interior has not been inspected, the lodge is noted as a good unaltered example of early 20th-century architecture in a 15th-century style, complementing the Manor House, which was also restored by Brakspear. The lodge is situated at the beginning of the mile-long avenue leading to the house.
