Landford Lodge

Landford Lodge is a detached country house dating to the late 18th century. It is constructed of Flemish bond brick with a hipped tiled roof and brick stacks. The house is square in plan with service areas attached around a square courtyard. It is two storeys with an attic, and has a seven-bay front. The central three bays feature an applied order of Ionic pilasters supporting a pediment. The central double doors have fielded panels and a fanlight, both topped by a pediment carried on pilasters; to either side are three 12-pane sash windows. The first floor has seven sash windows. A moulded cornice and plain blocking course run to the roof, and the attic has four raking dormers with 6-pane sashes. The right return has 12-pane sashes and a glazed door to the ground floor, with four sashes to the first floor. Two raking dormers have 2-light casements. Plain lead rainwater heads and downpipes are also present. The left return has a glazed door and a mix of 9-pane and 12-pane sashes, with some blind windows; two raking dormers are set into the roof. All sash windows have flat-arched heads. The rear of the house includes an attached service block around the square courtyard. This block has three blocked round-arched openings on the side nearest the main house and 3-light casements on the other sides. It has a brick dentilled eaves cornice to the hipped tiled roof.

The interior features fittings principally from the early 19th century, including doors with six fielded panels in moulded architraves, and a staircase with turned balusters lit by a dome on a fluted drum. There are 19th-century classical marble fireplaces, one in the dining room with caryatids, and some 18th-century fireplaces with beading, in the north rooms. The house was rebuilt by Sir William Heathcote of Hursley and sold in 1776. The majority of the present structure dates from after 1776, following building work completed by Charles Spooner. The early 19th-century interior dates from the occupancy of the Greatheed family.
