SS 50 SE
7/251 Lodge about 400 metres east-
- north-east of Broomford Manor
- II
Lodge at former drive entrance to Broomford Manor qv. Circa 1871-3 probably by
George Devey for Col.Sir Robert White-Thompson.
Stone rubble with dressed stone quoins and cills, and rendered above with red brick
cogged string-course. The wing at the front has applied sham timber-framing and
all of the first floor was possibly like that originally. Plain tile roof with
gabled ends and moulded timber bargeboards. Large red brick axial stack at roof
junction with diagonally set shaft at either end of main shaft and with moulded
yellow clay pots.
Plan: T-shaped on plan with a long projecting front wing at the centre to the south
with an open porch in the angle to the left. The central axial stack probably
serves what must be just one room in each of the wings. Later a single storey
outshut was added at the back of the rear cross-wing.
Exterior: 2 storeys. The main south front has a projecting gabled wing at the
centre jettied on the first floor on small timber struts on stone corbela; a stone
canted bay window below the jetty with a 5-light ovolo-moulded wooden window and a
similar 2-light window above in the gable. The gable has applied timber-framing and
is weatherboarded at the apex. In the angle to the left an open porch with a lean-
to slate roof on timber posts and a C19 plank door. The gable end of the rear cross
wing has one window on each floor. There is a later single-storey outshut at the
back (north).
Interior was not inspected.
