Full Description
1978. Field Observation.
Morton Lodge is a picturesque red brick Gothic style building with tall ornate chimneys, a pinnacled turret against the façade, and finials on the gables. It may date from the 1830s when additions were made to the hall, although these additions were in Classical rather than Gothic style.
