Historical Interest:
Of particular historical interest, Blatchington Lodge House was constructed within the former orchard belonging to the original Blatchington Lodge, dating from 1912. Within the grounds remains the original powerhouse which once generated electricity for the Lodge. Now forming a charming cottage-style outbuilding, a number of original details have been carefully preserved, including its carved timber lintel, traditional eaves and tiles, pointing and an original opening leaded window - providing a fascinating link to the history of the site.Agent's Note:
