White Lodge

White Lodge is a former rectory, now a private house, with a 17th-century core to the rear and a main front range built in 1837. The house is constructed of rendered stone and some cob, with hipped, low-pitched slate roofs; the front range has deep, bracketed eaves and rendered stacks to the left end, and two ridge stacks with blind recessed panels. Gable-ended slate roofs with moulded bargeboards cover the rear range, along with ridge stacks and a stone rubble stack at the rear gable end.

The front range has a symmetrical plan with three rooms in line, and access from the left side to a rear passage. The 17th-century range extends to the rear, with three short, gable-ended wings projecting at right angles to the left side. The garden front is symmetrical, featuring a central, two-storey canted bay window with two blind window openings on the sides, framing a sash window with margin glazing bars. Similar sash windows are to the right, with a blind opening to the left. Above are two 12-paned sashes framing French windows with margin glazing bars to each facet of the canted bay. The entrance side of the left return has two windows, with the left-hand window advanced and featuring a semi-circular arched doorway with a reeded arch, leading to a vaulted inner porch roof. The door is six-panelled, with a fanlight above.

The gable ends of the rear wings, particularly those to the left, feature 19th-century two-light horizontal sliding sashes. The interior of the front range retains 19th-century joinery and fittings. Some two-panelled doors remain in the rear range, along with a fragment of 17th-century decorative plasterwork cornice showing the base of a fleur-de-lis motif above the secondary staircase. The roof structure is entirely 19th century, featuring king post trusses. In the garden stands a section of a granite pier, possibly from Westleigh Church and formerly used as a sundial.
