History: Annes Grove is built in Gothic style. It is situated at the junction of three quiet country roads and surrounded by mature beech trees, which cradle the property and stonewalls. Annes Grove was designed by Benjamin Woodward, of the distinguished firm of architects Deane and Woodward in 1853. Since Woodward designed only two gatelodges of this type, it is of some architectural importance. The lodge, prior to restoration, had not been lived in since the 1940s. Gate lodges are a distinct category of buildings. They had a particular and important function, yet are of small enough scale to allow indulgence in flights of fantasy. Gate lodges range in style from the rustic hermitage to hindu temple, to greek revival archway - and crucially, they provided an indication to outsiders of the house, and owner: they belonged to an age when image and appearances were of great importance. La loge Annes Grove est construite dans le style gothique. Elle est située à la jonction de trois routes de campagne et entourée de vieux hêtres et de murs de pierres. Elle a été conçue par Benjamin Woodward, du célèbre cabinet d'architectes ‘Deane et Woodward’ en 1853. Depuis Woodward n’a conçu que deux maisons de gardien (Gatelodges) de ce type, ce qui fait son importance architecturale. Avant la restauration, la loge n'avait pas été habitée depuis les années 1940. Les maisons de gardiens (Gates Lodge) appartiennent à une catégorie distincte de bâtiments. Elles ont eu une fonction particulière et importante, mais sont d'échelle suffisamment petite pour permettre l'indulgence quant à leur hauteur et leur fantaisie. Le style rustique de cette maison de gardien est inspiré de l'ermitage des temples hindou ou encore des arcades de la renaissance grecque. Les Gatelodges permettaient de fournir une indication à l'entrée des propriétés, ils appartiennent à une époque où l'image et les apparences étaient d'une grande importance pour les propriétaires.
