Description

East Lodge in Coodham is an earlier 19th-century single-storey Classical gate lodge featuring four bays and a piend roof. The building is constructed of whitewashed ashlar and includes a base course, cornice, and blocking course. The windows have lugged, corniced margins and projecting cills.

The principal elevation faces north and features a prostyle Tuscan portico, with the outer left bay slightly recessed. There are single-bay elevations on the east and west sides, and a two-bay extension at the rear, which is single-storey towards the road on the east and two-storey towards the garden on the west.

The windows predominantly have 12-pane glazing and are replacement timber sash and case, with some plate glass. There is a central low whitewashed coped ashlar stack and a Welsh slate roof, along with some cast-iron rainwater goods.

The gatepiers and gates consist of four square-plan, whitewashed stone gatepiers with pediments. The inner pair features Roman fasces in arched panels, a deep cornice, laurel wreath pediments with leaf acroteria, and short, narrow hexagonal shafts that protrude above. The outer pair is slightly shorter and plainer, with plain panels, a similar cornice, flat pediments, and squared acroteria. Curved perimeter walls are made of coped ashlar, and the outer gates are cast iron with a key-pattern band and arrowhead finials.

The interior, as seen in 2012, retains much of its original room layout.
