Description
Leawood Lodge is a lodge dating from the early 19th century, situated next to Leawood House. The building features local stone rubble walls with granite dressings and has a hipped slate roof. At the rear, there is a large projecting rubble lateral stack. Originally, the lodge had a two-room layout, with a kitchen/living room on the right, heated by the rear lateral stack, and an unheated dairy/service room on the left. It is two storeys high and has a symmetrical front with three windows, each featuring two-light casements with arched heads and gothic glazing in the upper sections, which are likely original, although the casements may have been replaced. The central doorway is somewhat incongruous, made from reused materials that include a stone arched head with heavy roll mouldings and two massive crude granite piers with moulded tops. The interior has not been inspected.
