Conjuror's Lodge
II
Workshop and store. Late C18 or early C19. Squared and dressed
stone front, rubble returns, corrugated asbestos-cement roof.
A long narrow building in two storeys set gable to street,
with loading-bay door centrally to first floor above larger
pair of C20 doors in plat band surround, offset to right at
ground floor. Raised verge, dressed flush alternating quoins.
To right a straight-flight stone external flight of steps with
stone balustrade rises to door at first floor. Towards back a
glazing bar sash at each level. This property is reputed to
have been used during the C19 by a breakaway Dissenting sect,
whence its strange name. A rare surviving example of this
building type on Portland, which, like Ranter's Lodge (q.v.),
has historical interest in tracing the development of
non-conformity which was an important facter in the island's
social history.
