Description

Broughton Hall Lodge is a two-storey gate lodge built in red brick and designed in the Tudorbethan style, topped with a slate roof featuring dentilated eaves. The architect is unknown. A prominent feature is the elaborate diagonally set off-centre brick chimney stack, which has four clustered flues with moulded caps, reminiscent of those found at Broughton Hall.

The lodge has a three-window front with a deeply projecting central bay that forms a two-storey porch in a sub-medieval style. The upper floor is supported by two Doric stone columns, while the ground floor is open, featuring a Tudor-arched door flanked by small-paned lights. The small-paned wooden casement windows are mostly two-light, with the ground floor windows set under pointed arches, where the bricks are tumbled into the apex.

The front elevation's small-paned wooden casement windows are topped by timber-framed gables with barge boards. The ground floor windows are three-light, while those on the first floor are two-light. A bay window with casements and carved brackets faces the road. Above the gable end, there is a carved stone cartouche that displays the date "1858". The main, central, and end gables feature barge-boards with carved wooden finials at their apex, complete with open pendants. Additionally, there is a single-storey projection to the south, which includes a brick stack.
