50, London Road North

No. 50 on London Road North is an early 19th-century lodge. It is built of roughcast brick on a buff sandstone plinth and features a pyramidal Welsh slate roof with a central plastered chimney. The building is square in plan and has a symmetrical three-bay north front that is two stories high. The end bays have fixed, iron 12-pane windows with blocked circular lights above them. The entrance consists of a door set in a moulded wooden frame within a recess under a semi-circular headed arch that has a raised keystone. Above the door is a raised band and a 9-pane wooden casement window in a low upper storey. On either side of the entrance, there are niches that flank the blocked semi-circular headed brick arch. This lodge was formerly associated with Poynton Hall, which was demolished in the mid-19th century.
