Birkin Bridge South Lodge And Railing Attached

Birkin Bridge South Lodge is a gate lodge built in the 19th century. It features red English garden wall bond brickwork and a slate roof. The drive front has a stone plinth and a gabled porch at the center. To the left of the porch, there is a 2-light casement window with a cambered head and a stone cill. A stone band runs between the floors. On the first floor, there are two 2-light casement windows, one on each side. The lodge has two gable chimneys. The east and west ends have slightly recessed blind arches with a stone impost band, and the pedimented gables are adorned with stone cyma dressings. The east end features a 2-light casement window on the ground floor and a 19th-century outshut at the rear. To the left of the porch on the entrance front, there is a low stone wall with piers at either end, which run at right angles to the lodge. The piers have plain plinths, heavy chamfering, and cyma-moulded capitals.
