Description

The Lodge is a house built in 1802 for Joseph Lodge, a brewer. It is constructed of rubble with a stone slate roof. The building has two storeys and features three main bays, along with two additional one-storey bays to the right. The three right-hand ground-floor bays are of earlier origin and are marked by quoins.

In the first three bays, there is a part-glazed door in bay three, which is topped by a fanlight with decorative glazing bars, all set within an ashlar surround on plinths with imposts and a tripartite keystone. The sash windows below are framed by deep lintels. The left end of the building has coping, and there is a corniced stack at both the left and right ends. The two right bays, which were originally an outbuilding, now serve as a kitchen and feature two round-arched openings that have been partly blocked to create small windows. The Lodge is included for its group value.

Local climate

The Lodge sits in a wetter-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 1,130 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 89% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 81% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 63 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 98% of listed buildings. Of these, 41 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
