Rustic Lodge in American Gardens

Rustic Lodge is an L-shaped cottage orne from the early 19th century. The main wing has two storeys and features one window, while the L-wing is a single storey with one window. The building is constructed from coursed squared rock-faced limestone, laid roughly at varying depths, and has a tiled roof. It includes three-light casement windows with lozenge glazing and keyed heads. On the ground floor of the two-storey section, there is a small canted bay window with five lights, timber mullions, a transom, and a tiled roof. The half-hipped gable has scalloped barge-boards, and there is a tall rough stack with three flues. The single-storey wing also has a half-hipped roof. The end wall features a picturesque porch with a similarly scalloped gable. There is an entrance and a modern kitchen extension to the right rear. The interior was not available for inspection at the time of resurvey in October 1996.
