Description
Middle Lodge is an L-shaped, one-storey building with an attic, designed in the Tudor Gothic style. It is made of coursed dressed sandstone with quoins and has replaced slate roofs. The lodge features large stacks with octagonal clustered shafts, including a central ridge stack with four shafts. The gables and gabled half-dormers are adorned with decorated openwork barge boards and pendant finials. The flat-headed mullioned windows are set in heavy surrounds and have diamond quarries.
The entrance front faces north and offers good views to the south, east, and west. There is a gabled porch on the north gable end of the north-south range, with an east-west range to the right. The porch is built from large stone blocks and has a pointed-arched entrance with continuous chamfered and keeled mouldings. Inside the porch is a planked door with a flat lintel. Above the porch, the gable projects on a corbel table and features a single light window. The west side of this range has a two-light window.
In the angle of the two ranges, facing north, is a corbelled side stack with three shafts. The west gable end has a three-light window beneath a square hoodmould and a single light window in the gable. The south side of the lodge has a two-window arrangement with a wide gable to the right and a gabled half-dormer to the left, both containing two-light windows. Below these, there is a three-light window to the left and a single light window offset to the right.
The east side has a similar layout, but there is a narrow single-storey wing with plain barge boards attached to the left gabled bay. The right side features a gabled half-dormer with a two-light window, and another half-dormer is located on the ground floor. The wing includes a late 20th-century planked door in the east gable end under a flat stone lintel, a single light window to the north, and a large projecting side stack to the south.
At the time of inspection on July 6, 1999, there was no access to the interior.
