Lodge House To Copgrove Hall With Enclosed Yard On West Side

Lodge house to Copgrove Hall, built in the early 19th century, likely for Henry Duncombe. The building is constructed of ashlar with a grey slate roof and has two storeys and two bays, with the right bay projecting to create an L-plan. The left bay features a four-panel door on the left and a 20-pane sash window on the right. Both the door and window are located beneath a long, flat-roofed porch supported by paired and single Tuscan columns, which have an entablature, deep moulded cornice, and blocking course. All windows are 20-pane sashes set back in rectangular recesses. The building includes a first-floor band, a moulded eaves cornice and guttering, and moulded pediments on the east, north, and south gables. A tall corniced ridge stack is positioned at the center. The yard wall on the west side has a flat coping that is slightly lower than the first-floor band. The building is enclosed by walling that flanks the gate piers.
