Description
Lowfields Lodge is a lodge built in 1850, featuring watershot masonry with stone dressings and a roof covered in hexagonal stone slates. The building has a T-shaped plan and consists of two storeys with three bays, including a right-hand wing with two bays and a projecting left-hand gabled bay. The right-hand wing has a left-hand entrance with a plain lintel and a four-panel door. There is a two-light flat faced mullioned window on the ground floor with five-pane metal fixed lights and casements, along with a timber and stone slate verandah.
On the upper floor, there are two windows: a left-hand two-light flat faced mullioned window with four-pane metal fixed lights and casements, and a right-hand half dormer window that resembles the left but features imitation Y tracery. Between these upper floor windows is a datestone inscribed with "Y RF" and a hoodmould. The left-hand projecting bay includes a ground-floor bay window with four lights, flat faced mullions, and six-pane metal casements and fixed lights with margin pane glazing, topped by a hipped slate roof. The upper floor has narrow three-light flat faced mullioned windows with five-pane metal casements and fixed lights, along with a small central three-pane fixed light above. The building displays exposed purlins under the overhanging gable, a tall left-hand projecting eaves stack, and a right-hand gable end ridge stack. At the rear, there is a late 19th-century continuous outshut.
