Church Lodge - Northwood Park

The Ward family commissioned lodges to their 230-acre private park which once served the nearby Northwood House with its house and buildings designed by John Nash, the renowned architect who also designed Brighton Pavilion. Nestled in a conservation area, this classical style lodge has been sympathetically restored to its current status and has planning permission for further improvements.
