906-1/5/20 (South side)
29/09/77 Lodge Farmhouse

II

Farmhouse, now house. Dated 1874 on rear gable but
incorporating some fabric removed from adjacent early C17
house known as "The Lodge", which was demolished in that year;
and altered. Coursed squared sandstone, slate roof. L-plan
formed by double-depth, double-fronted main range with short
rear wing to left.
2 storeys with cellars and attic, 3 windows, almost
symmetrical. The centre has a gabled single-storey porch, with
a moulded round-headed arch which may be from the earlier
house; and, above this, the principal feature of interest,
which is a very unusual ogival-headed 5-stage 15-light
mullion-and-transom stair-window with ovolo-moulded mullions
and transoms, ogival hood-mould, and a coped gable with
kneelers and the stumps of former finials. Such a window is
not shown in surviving photographs of either the front or the
rear of The Lodge, and may have been assembled from parts of
several different windows in that building. The other windows
are orthodox for the date 1874: vertical-rectangular openings
with raised sills and plain surrounds, and altered glazing.
Coped gables, gable chimneys. The rear has similar C19
fenestration, and a datestone in the gable of the wing
inscribed "RTP 1874". INTERIOR not inspected.
