raised over drive to west of Lower
Lodge

GV II

Walls, bridge and steps associated with raised lane which
carries a track over the drive to Cockington Court (qv) behind
Lower Lodge (qv). Early or mid C19. Local stone rubble with
red sandstone dressings. A lane off the south side of
Cockington Lane is carried over the sunken drive directly
behind Lower Lodge. The bridge is a continuation of the
carriageway through the lodge and has a round arch. The lane
is hidden from the drive by a tall parapet wall which contains
a blind Tudor style limestone mullioned window and the wall is
crenellated. On the south side of the drive a round-headed
doorway gives access to stone steps up to another similar
doorway through the parapet wall.
The walls and steps form part of an exceptionally attractive
group of listed buildings in Cockington Park and the adjacent
unspoilt village.
