LEIGHFIELD SK 80 SW Leigh Lodge (previously listed as Leighfield Lodge) 3/126
14.6.54 II
Large house, late C16 but probably incorporating earlier fragments. Coursed squared rubble with various ashlar dressings, including plinth and string courses. Stone tiled roof. 2 storeys and attics, a large double-pile plan with projecting small gabled wings to east and west forming a large symmetrical block. Entrance front faces east, and has a full height coped gabled porch in the centre with 4-centred arch outer door, and a 3-light flat chamfered mullion window to each floor above. At first floor level, there is a carved shield, with the arms either of the Harington or of the Noel family. The inner doorway is also 4-centred but ornately roll-moulded. A 3-light flat chamfered mullioned window either side of the porch, on each floor. The west front contains a central full height coped cabled projection housing a staircase. On its north face is a small doorway which is probably a survival from an earlier building, and has a 4-centred arch with deeply cut roll moulding that dies into a flat chamfer lower down. The arch is contained in an ill-matched squared head. Various flat chamfered mullions in the gable, and a bell case on the north wall. Left of the gable 2 windows to ground floor, one of three lights and the other of four with a king mullion. The right hand bay is blank but for a moulded string course at first floor level, which continues around the house. South elevation has paired gable of the double pile, with tall 3-light mullioned windows to each floor and stone stacks in the valley. Rear elevation contains brick arch doorway to right and adjoining late C19 dairy, brick with hipped tiled roof and long windows with chamfered wood mullions. 2 gable windows above.
