Entrance Lodge To South Of Broadleys

The entrance lodge to the south of Broadleys was built between 1898 and 1900 by architect C.F.A. Voysey. It is constructed of coursed slate with some roughcast and features a slate roof. The lodge is a single storey with an attic and consists of three bays. It has wide eaves and moulded bargeboards.

The east facade includes a gabled first bay with raking buttresses. The windows are casements with architraves, moulded sills, and leaded glazing featuring rectangular quarries. The first bay has paired two-light casements with a dressed slate dripcourse and lintel above, while the other two bays have four-light windows. The first floor has a three-light window with a dripcourse above, and the gable is roughcast. A large cross-axial stack is present.

The north-east angle is recessed to form a porch supported by a Tuscan column. The entrance features a boarded door with strap hinges and a handle adorned with heart motifs, alongside an adjacent window. The north gable end has a roughcast gable above a dripcourse, with a two-light window on the ground floor and a projecting timber dove cote above, although it has ledges but no holes. The porch includes an iron overthrow for a lamp, also featuring heart motifs.

To the right, there is a wall with a round-headed entrance that has strap hinges with heart motifs. The west facade has a lean-to outhouse attached to the third bay, with a gable above. The entrance is accessed by three slate steps leading to the second bay, which has a two-light window to the right. The third bay contains a three-light first floor window with a dripcourse, and the gable above is roughcast. The south gable end has a later lean-to timber shed and a large projecting lateral stack.

Inside, there are few original features, but the windows retain a type of catch that is common in Voysey's work.
