Description

St John's Lodge is a house built in the early to mid 19th century, featuring painted stucco and a shallow hipped slate roof with projecting eaves supported by brackets and a cornice. The building is two stories tall, with a plinth and a moulded floor band. The east front has three bays of sash windows, each surrounded by architrave, with cornices and console brackets on the ground floor; the left-hand window is blocked. There is a projecting central porch with angle pilasters, a cornice, and three semicircular-headed openings, two of which are blocked, featuring keyblocks and moulded imposts, with a door located on the left side.

The south elevation includes a two-storey canted bay on the right-hand side and a coat of arms in a panel on the left with a sash window above it. The west elevation features a square bay on the left with a balcony that has convex railings and a canopy supported by brackets. The north wing has a three-bay central block, with the central ground floor window having a cornice on brackets. There is a half-bay link to the main house and a lower wing at the northern end. The house was built by Dr. Lee of Hartwell and later served as the residence of Admiral W.H. Smyth, a scientist and antiquary who authored "Aedes Hartwelliana," published in 1851.
