Description
The lodge and former stable, located approximately 70 meters south of Brantwood, consists of a stable likely built in the 18th century and a lodge constructed in 1872 for John Ruskin. The building features roughcast stone with a slate roof, while the rear wing is made of stone rubble. It is two stories high and has two bays, with a smaller, recessed two-bay wing at the rear. The left angle of the building is canted, and there is a slate drip course above the ground floor.
On the ground floor, there are four- and three-light mullioned windows, along with a two-light window at the canted angle. The first floor includes a four-light flat-topped dormer, and at the canted angle, there is a canted oriel dormer with a gable and small return lights. The right angle features a gabled oriel dormer set across the angle with a pyramidal roof. The left return has sashed windows, a first-floor loading door, and a lateral stack. The right return contains a lateral stack and an entrance, while the rear wing has two entrances, each with a small-paned light to the left. The first floor also has windows, and there is an opening in the rear wall designed to accommodate a waterfall, with a stream partially culverted through the building and emerging through an opening in the front wall.
