Lake Lodge

Lake Lodge is a former lodge that has been converted into a small detached house, built around 1860 for Reverend David Edwards. The building is constructed from coursed and squared marlstone, with brick chimney bases and tall limestone stacks, topped by a plain tile roof. It is designed in the Oriental Tudor style, which gives it a picturesque appearance.

The lodge is single-storey and features two projecting wings on the northwest side. The southwest end is connected to a marlstone boundary wall and includes a small canted timber oriel with a hipped roof and a moulded stone underside. At the end of the ridge, there is a tall timber spike finial, and the heavily sprocketed eaves contribute to its oriental character, with exposed rafter ends. Each wing has a small canted bay with hipped roofs, and one wing retains a timber spike finial.

Three chimneys are mounted on the ridge, each with a brick dentil course at the base and tall Tudor-style chimney shafts that feature lozenge or spiral patterns, although some have been replaced with plain pots. The blank rear wall of the lodge is built into a bank that contains an ice house. Lake Lodge was formerly one of two lodges that provided access to the drives leading to Stancombe Park in Stinchcombe.
