Description
Waterfoot Lodge is a lodge for Waterfoot House, built in the early 19th century. It features painted rendered walls set on a chamfered plinth and has a hipped roof made of graduated greenslate, topped with a red sandstone ashlar chimney stack. The building is a single storey with three bays. The front includes a central canted bay, with each face featuring a pointed-arched sash window, along with similar windows on either side. The right side of the building has a studded panelled door located within a 20th-century porch. At the rear, there is a pointed-arched doorway and windows on the left, while the right side has windows that seem to have originally been doorways, each with its own gablet.
