Description
Diamond Lodge is a lodge for Sezincote House, designed by S. P. Cockerell around 1805. It is constructed of ashlar limestone with a slate roof and a brick chimney. The main body of the building is positioned at right angles to the road, with wings of equal length attached at the rear, creating a T-shaped plan. The symmetrical facade features a single gable at the front and has two storeys.
On the ground floor of the front gable end, there is a 3-light bay window with 4-centred arched heads for each light, which includes leaded panes with some coloured glass. The eaves have a moulded coping, and above the bay window, the roof rises to a stone palmette in relief. A circular window with a moulded architrave is situated above the bay. Access to the wings on either side of the gable end is provided by two 'V' plank doors, with a fanlight above the left-hand door.
The gable end is enclosed in Hindu/Mogul style lattice work featuring ogee cusped arches, which extend back over flagged paths on either side of the gable end to create a short colonnade leading to doorways in the wings. The building also has cusped barge boards and a central stack.
Inside, the lodge retains an old washing copper, a shelved dairy and pantry, and a small range.
