Description
This is a lodge house dating from 1870, with a later 20th-century two-storey addition to the rear. It is constructed of coursed, stugged sandstone, with raised ashlar window and door surrounds. A rendered extension is present. The lodge has a broadly L-shaped plan.
The principal, east, elevation features an advanced, pitched section to the right, with a central canted bow window. Above this window is a trefoil decorative feature within a triangular surround. A pitched porch is set back to the left, with a chamfered and tabbed door surround and rounded corners to the lintel. The porch contains a panelled timber door with a fanlight displaying rounded upper corners. Above the doorway is a shield dated 1870, bearing the monogram JAH (James Alexander Hunt). A further section is set back to the left with a window.
The south elevation has a pitched gable wall and an advanced canted bow window with a trefoil feature above. A modern extension extends southwards from the south gable wall, featuring a central ground floor bipartite window and a first-floor window above. To the right return is a door, with a window to the right and a bipartite window to the left.
The west elevation includes a pitched gable wall to the left with a central quatrefoil window in the apex. A window is positioned to the left. An advanced flat-roofed section is present to the right, with a window to the north and in the northeast angle. A modern extension is situated to the right, featuring two windows to the left and a ground floor door far right.
To the north elevation, a pedimented bipartite window is present to the right, featuring stone mullions and a trefoil detail in the tympanum. An advanced canted bow window is on the left, with a kneelered pediment above displaying a trefoil detail in the tympanum.
The windows are timber, horned, sash and case, and many panes. The roof is pitched slate, with kneelered gables on all but the south gable. Lead cladding covers the raised skews, and ball finials adorn each gable apex and pediment. Three coped polygonal stacks are grouped on the south ridge. The modern extension has a piended slate roof with a rooflight to the east and a shouldered wallhead stack to the west. Rainwater goods are made of cast iron.
The interior was not inspected in 2000.
The entrance gatepiers are chamfered, panelled, square-plan piers on bases, topped with pyramidal coping stones that have semicircular details on each face. An additional single gatepier is located to the east. A low stone wall runs to the east, with some remaining metal railings.
