Churnsike Lodge, Victorian hunting lodge in Greystead, England.
The stone-built Churnsike Lodge stands on the western edge of Kielder Forest, featuring a main house, stable block, and former gamekeeper quarters.
The Charlton family constructed this hunting residence in 1850 as part of their Hesleyside estate, which later transferred to the Chesters Estate in 1889.
The estate contained the Irthing Head and Kielder hounds kennels, connected to the regional fox hunting traditions of Northumberland documented in local ballads.
Located 14 miles from Haltwhistle, the lodge operates with sustainable systems including a biomass boiler and private water source from a tested borehole.
The property, once destined for demolition in the 1980s by the Forestry Commission, now functions as a preserved holiday residence in remote Northumberland.
