Description

The East Lodge to Manor House Hotel, built in 1907 by Detmar Blow for Viscount Hambledon, is a lodge constructed from dressed granite blocks with Bath stone detailing around the windows and doorway. It features a tiled roof with shaped gables and has an L-shaped plan with the doorway located at the angle between the two wings. The building is two storeys high and has an asymmetrical facade, with a shorter wing projecting from the left side.

The stone arched doorway is situated in a slightly projecting porch, which has a single light mullion window in the shaped gable above. On the ground floor, there is a three-light mullion window to the right and a single light window to the left on the inner face of the wing. Both gable ends of the lodge contain a three-light mullion window on each floor, except for the ground floor window on the left wing, which is a four-light window. The lodge also features two decorative lead rainwater heads.

In front of the lodge, there is a low garden wall made of dressed granite blocks, which adjoins the left gable end. A gateway is located to the left of center, topped with ball finials. Approximately 7 meters to the northeast of the lodge is the gateway for the drive to the Manor House Hotel, consisting of two square piers made of Bath stone ashlar, also topped with ball finials.
