The Lodge

The Lodge is a building likely constructed after 1839, around the time the Public Rooms, now known as The Museum Hall, were opened. It is made of brown brick and features a pitched slate roof. The building has two storeys and is characterized by a bracketed wooden eaves cornice and a continuous first floor sill. It consists of seventeen bays, with sash windows that have glazing bars and rusticated stucco voussoirs.

Number 14 has a panelled door with an oblong fanlight, set in a porch supported by panelled square columns that hold an entablature featuring unusual triglyphs. Numbers 16 to 24 have doors with semi-circular fanlights in porches with trellis-patterned spandrels and moulded cornices above. Numbers 16 and 18, as well as 20 and 22, are paired. Notably, number 22 has all its first floor windows grouped together beneath a single hood-mould. The Lodge itself has a twin-gabled front and is accessed from the south side.
