Description
North Lodge, built around 1897, is likely designed by Charles Hadfield. It features rubble limestone with gritstone dressings, some parts rendered, and has a pseudo timber framing style. The roof is covered with plain tiles and has coped gables, moulded kneelers, and ball finials. The building has an irregular plan and elevations, consisting of one and two storeys.
On the east elevation, there is a central doorway with a moulded stone surround and a bracketed hood. To the right of the doorway is a small circular window, followed by a tall gabled bay that has two 2-light mullion windows on each floor, with a chamfered stringcourse above each window. To the left of the doorway, there is a single light window and a polygonal bay at the corner. The west elevation includes a doorway, a window, and a canted bay window on the ground floor. The upper floor to the left is cement rendered and features applied timber framing.
Attached to the south side are ashlar gate piers, which are square in plan. The left-hand pier has an urn on top, and there is a wrought iron gate.
