Description
East Lodge is a lodge to Creedy Park, now functioning as a house. It was built in the early 19th century and enlarged in 1984. The structure features plastered rubble on an exposed granite plinth, with rubble stacks and exposed brick chimney shafts, topped by a slate roof. The building consists of two small heated rooms connected by a roofed carriageway that faces the road to the southeast. It has end stacks and is single storey with lofts. The front is symmetrical, featuring a central large semi-circular arch beneath a roof that runs parallel to the road, flanked by gable-ended rooms. Each room contains fixed pane frames that were formerly 12-pane sashes, and there are tall chimney shafts on either side.
The front arch includes wrought-iron double gates set within gate posts that feature a trellis work pattern and bifurcated scroll-work heads. The gates sweep down to the center and are adorned with wide-spaced railings, a double lockrail with a frieze of Vitruvian scrollwork, and upward curving rails above and below, the latter including a dograil of arrowheads. There are six-panel doors on either side of the carriageway, each with doorcases that feature a key-pattern frieze on the entablature. The extension added in 1984 to the left (south-west) room is similar to Creedy Park's West Lodge.
