Statement of Interest

The lodge is listed in a B-group along with the other surviving buildings and the principal gate on the Langton estate. A lodge was on this site in 1857. The specification of 1815 has no plans and so it is impossible to know whether the earlier design was intended for this site, that of the Terrace Lodge, or somewhere else. According to the Fiddes and Rowan, the lodge, along with the principal gate (see separate listing) is the main piece of Bryce?s work at Langton that is still extant.
