SX 45 SW MAKER-WITH-RAME MOUNT EDGCUMBE COUNTRY PARK

6/195 Higher Lodge

GV II

Lodge. Late C18 but in a rather earlier style. Coursed sandstone rubble with limestone dressings and quoins and slate roof.

Probably double depth plan with entrance to right; later wing set back slightly to left.

Two storeys, low pitched gabled front of 3 bays with additional later bay to left.

Ground floor has plain doorway on right with part glazed door, two 12-paned sashes.

Above is a central arched 12-pane sash flanked by thermal windows all with glazing bars. All the windows are in unmoulded architraves. First floor string course.

The wing to left has a 6-pane window below and a 12-pane one above. Interior not inspected. The apparently consciously archaic design makes this building difficult to date.
