Description

West Lodge at Bestwood Pumping Station is a lodge built in 1871, designed in the Gothic Revival style. It is constructed of brick with a slate roof and features ashlar dressings. The building has a chamfered plinth, a dentillated cornice and eaves, and coped gables topped with iron finials. There are two external side wall stacks. The lodge is two storeys high and consists of three bays, arranged in an L-plan.

The windows are lancets with round and pointed polychrome heads and bracketed sills. The east front has a gabled wing on the left, which includes a hipped square bay window with six lancets. In the return angle, there is a parapeted square porch with a lintel band, featuring a round-headed door with shafts and a hood mould, alongside a single lancet window. To the right of the porch, there is a double lancet window. Above this, on the left, are two double lancets, and to the right is a cross eaves gabled dormer. The north gable has a triple lancet window, with a double lancet above it. To the right, there is a set-back single-storey outbuilding with a door and a double lancet window, followed by a buttressed wall leading to a square yard.

On the south side, there is a door flanked on the left by a 20th-century casement window and on the right by two lancets. This lodge is part of a pumping station, one of three built in the late 19th century to serve Nottingham City.
