Description

A Picturesque 1½-storey lodge, with a scribed render front, rubble-stone side and rear walls, slate roof projecting on bracketed eaves with cusped barge boards to the front gable, skylights, and hipped to the rear. There is a central stone ridge stack and blue-brick stack in the hipped rear. The lower storey has a hipped veranda with diamond-pattern slate roof on pairs of thin wooden posts with wide elliptical arches. The lower storey comprises a 3-bay blind arcade in coursed freestone with round arches and impost band. A panelled door in the central bay incorporates raised fields, and is flanked by 2-light casements in the outer bays. In the upper storey is a central oval window flanked by replaced 2-light casements.

The R (N) side wall facing the road has a segmental-headed window with 2-light casement. Attached to the angle with the front is a gate pier with pyramidal cap and retaining iron pintles. The rear angle is splayed to the height of an attached boundary stone wall and corbelled to square above. The W wall has a blocked wide chamfered doorway, the original access to the cart shed. The S side wall facing the courtyard has, between the 2 archways, a 2-light casement lower R and blocked doorway upper L, beneath a gable. Further L is a wide segmental carriage doorway, and doorway then window to its R. All have stone segmental heads and restored glazing. At the L end is a segmental-headed window, L of which is an abutting rubble-stone wall running across the yard. To the upper R is a 2-light dormer window with cusped barge boards.

Attached to the S side are 2 stone archways that link the lodge with the former stables and cart shed. The front (E) arch is in freestone with double roll moulding and capitals to a round arch, copied from the moulding on the gatehouse NW of the main house. It has coursed freestone to the spandrels and is crowned by a projecting coping course. The plainer inner arch is rubble stone with voussoirs, and retains gate pintles.
