Description
The Grand Lodge is a lodge house dating to approximately 1880-90, likely designed by H.A. Destailleur for Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild. The building is constructed of red brick with stone dressings and a flat lead roof. It is in a classical style, featuring a stone plinth, a panelled band course on the first floor, an upper frieze, and a cornice with a balustraded parapet above. The facade is vertically articulated with strips of rusticated stone blocks at the corners and between bays, and plain strips flanking the windows.
The lodge house is two storeys high and arranged with three bays. It has four-pane sash windows; those on the first floor have segmental heads, accentuated keyblocks, and panelled stone aprons. The central first-floor window has a more elaborate surround with a scrolled keyblock. The ground floor of the central bay features a half-glazed door and barred wooden casements set behind a moulded stone segmental arch with scrolls above, and a device of five arrows within a central cartouche.
