What, besides these meanings...
definition of lodge from Oxford Dictionaries Online
do you understand by the word lodge?
In this part of the world, and certainly to me, it means a body of water, along with the other meanings.
Probably man-made, to supply water for the textile industry, though it could also be a not very large, water-filled quarry. A lodge is larger than a pond, but smaller than a lake.
To me it's a word in fairly common usage in Lancashire, and the north, but can find no reference in any dictionary to a lodge being a place filled with water.
Do you call a small body of water a lodge?
How far away from this area does it stop being called a lodge, and is named something else?
Why isn't recorded in the dictionary? There are certainly more obscure uses of words recorded in most lexicons.
