Description

South Lodge is a small lodge built in the Tudor Gothic style. It features a short main range oriented north-south, consisting of one and a half storeys and a basement. There is a gabled porch on the east side and a single-storey gabled wing on the west. A 20th-century extension is located at the rear (north). The building is constructed of rock-faced coursed grey masonry and has a slate-covered half-hipped roof, along with a plinth course. An eaves stack on the west side of the main range has three round shafts and a shield beneath it. The gables are adorned with cusped barge boards, and the windows are moulded wood-framed with square hoodmoulds.

The south gable of the main range faces the driveway and features a large canted bay window with a hipped roof, which contains a three-light mullioned and transomed window. Above this bay window is a two-light casement window. The porch is open to the south, east, and north, with segmental stone arches and hoodmoulds. A shield is positioned above the east arch, and the interior of the porch has a ribbed vaulted ceiling. The front door, located on the east side of the building, is panelled and set under a segmental head. To the right of the porch is a cross window. The single-storey west range has three-light windows on the south and west sides, and a 20th-century half-lit basement door on the north side, which is set under a segmental arch with voussoirs.

At the time of inspection in July 1997, there was no access to the interior.
