Description
The lodge at the south-west entrance to the Arboretum was built in 1851 by Henry Moses Wood, the Corporation Surveyor. It is designed in the Tudor Revival style and constructed of red brick, featuring blue brick and ashlar dressings, along with a patterned tile roof that has tile cresting and a truncated ridge stack. The building is two stories high and has a T-plan layout with one bay on the front and two on the side.
The facing gable showcases diaper work and a bargeboard with a finial. There is a canted ashlar bay window with three windows, inscribed panels on the parapet, and a central finial above. A two-light window with a label mould is positioned above this. The right side features a stone doorcase with an overlight at the return angle, while the left side has a hipped canted ashlar bay window. This lodge is part of the original architectural scheme of the Arboretum, which was laid out by Samuel Curtis of London between 1850 and 1852.
