Arboreal Masonic Lodge - Physical Description 1
Set within the natural forest the former Masonic Lodge overlooks the Mt Dandenong Tourist Road but is well hidden from it.
The rectangular plan, two storey lodge is situated on a terraced site, with access to the upper floor of the building from the upper terrace. The basement level is constructed from brick, and the rectangular window openings have been boarded over. The first floor level is clad with horizontal weatherboards below sill height and crowned with strapped, contrasting fibrous cement panels. The two remaining windows to the south facade are vertical rectangular, double hung windows. The Arts and Crafts tapered timber window surrounds date from the 1930s. The intersecting gable roofs have exposed rafters to the overhang, and a timber shingled gable end, pierced by a louvred timber vent beneath the apex.
At the time of this survey, the building was undergoing substantial renovation, with a new corrugated iron roof, and the re-cladding of the east wall.Arboreal Masonic Lodge - Physical Conditions
