Description
Harker Lodge is a house dating from the mid-18th century, with a facade altered in the early 19th century. It is constructed of Flemish bond brickwork with a chamfered stone plinth, raised stone quoins, and a string course. The roof is of graduated slate, with lead hips of a low pitch, a moulded wooden eaves cornice with wooden modillions, and brick chimney stacks. The house is two storeys high and originally five bays wide. The entrance features four Tuscan columns in antis, supporting a moulded and ornamented entablature. It has two doors with decorative shaped panels and glazed side lights, topped by a large elliptical fanlight with diamond and curved glazing bars. The tripartite sash windows on either side of the entrance have glazing bars, flat brick arches, and stone sills. The upper floor sashes also have glazing bars, similar arches, and sills. Behind the earlier, two-storey, three-bay brick house has a panelled door and sash windows with glazing bars. Flanking outbuildings are connected to the main house, with gable ends forming pedimented pavilions. Round-headed recesses have windows with similar glazing. The sides feature casements with glazing bars, a 20th-century plank door to the ground floor, and lofts. A wall-mounted bell is located on the right-hand range.
