Description
South Lodge is a former lodge to Stevenstone House, built around 1870 by the Honourable Mark George Kerr Rolle. The building is constructed from local stone rubble, featuring rock-faced sandstone ashlar quoins and ashlar dressings, with stone rubble stacks that have diagonally set divided brick chimney shafts, all topped by a slate roof. The house has a T-plan layout, with the main block facing west towards the former drive. It consists of a two-room plan on either side of a central entrance hall, each room having projecting gable-end stacks. At the rear, a slightly lower one-room plan kitchen block projects at right angles and also features a gable-end stack.
The exterior displays a symmetrical two-window front in an eccentric Tudor style. A full-height central entrance bay slightly juts forward, featuring a Tudor arch doorway with a 20th-century door and overlight, sheltered by an early 20th-century porch. Above the doorway is a small oculus window, and the top of the bay jetties out on a series of corbels. The shouldered gable includes an engaged stone pendant. The windows on either side have chamfered reveals and contain 20th-century casements without glazing bars. The first-floor windows are half dormers with shouldered gables that break forward slightly, creating an oriel window effect. The main roof is gable-ended with ashlar coping. The interior has not been inspected.
