Description

Huntsham Court Lodge is a lodge located at the main entrance to Huntsham Court, built around 1870, possibly by Benjamin Ferrey, who constructed Huntsham Court for C.A.W. Troyte between 1868 and 1870. The lodge is made of snecked grey limestone with Ham Hill stone dressing and features a red tiled roof that is gabled at both ends. It has a projecting left end stack on the front block and an end stack on the rear wing, both with stone shafts.

The lodge has an L-shaped plan with Gothic details to match Huntsham Court. It consists of two storeys and has an asymmetrical front with one window, featuring a Ham Hill stone wallplate. The front door, which dates from the 20th century, is located to the right and is set within a two-centred arched stone doorway with a heavy roll moulding. To the left, there is a canted bay window with stone mullioned lights that have chamfered mullions, and above it, there is a similar two-light mullioned window in a gabled dormer. The left and right returns of the lodge include mullioned windows, with a gabled dormer on the left return and an attic dormer on the right return. The rear features a plain two-centred arched doorway.

Inside, the lodge retains two contemporary chimneypieces and joinery. It has group value with the main gateway to Huntsham Court.
