Fawley Lodge And The Moot House

Fawley Lodge and The Moot House are a pair of houses, likely dating to around 1737. A stone tablet inscribed "I. Freeman Arm . Pos: Anno 1737" is set within an interior wall on the upper storey of the main block, indicating the likely date of construction. The houses are built of chequer brick with a plain plinth, dentil eaves, and a hipped roof covered in old tiles, with symmetrical brick chimneys. They are double pile, two storeys high with an attic, and have a symmetrical three-bay front. The windows are 3-pane sashes; those on the ground floor have gauged heads, while the upper heads have been rebuilt. A 20th-century glazed door is centrally located, set within a rusticated brick surround with a gauged arch and keyblock, and topped with a semi-circular fanlight and gabled porch. Two gabled dormers are visible on the rear elevation. The left side features 3-pane sashes to the first floor, and 20th-century alterations to the ground floor openings. A brick wing, dating to around 1900, extends from the rear on the left side. A 20th-century brick extension, containing an entrance to The Moot House, is on the right side and incorporates an earlier 19th-century service wing to the rear. Inside Fawley Lodge, there are heavy stop-chamfered ceiling beams with run-out stops and a staircase with turned column balusters and a moulded handrail.
