St Germains Lodge, St Germains

St Germains Lodge is an earlier 19th century single-storey, three-bay gate lodge, likely a reworking of an earlier structure, which retains a late 18th century porch. The lodge features freestone rubble with ashlar dressings, particularly noticeable on later alterations, and stone cills. There are earlier and mid-20th century additions to the south side and rear. An earlier to mid-19th century rubble outbuilding is located to the east along the boundary wall, topped with a lean-to corrugated iron roof.

The west elevation facing the driveway has a central grey ashlar porch with a broken pediment, chamfered arrises on the door jambs, and narrow windows on the return. There are windows in the outer bays. The south elevation has two windows, with the right one being a later insertion with a concrete surround. The rear elevation features rendered flat-roof additions, including a long glazed sunroom on the far right and a large box dormer. The north elevation has a central window.

Inside, no original features remain as of 2003. The lodge has timber sash and case windows with six-pane upper sections and two-pane lower sections. The roof is covered with grey slate and has exposed rafters, along with a small Velux window on the west elevation. There are corniced cement-rendered end stacks.

To the west of the lodge, there is a quadrant made of stugged grey sandstone ashlar with ashlar coping, along with square-plan, pyramidal capped ashlar gatepiers.
