Lodge To City South Campus, Birmingham City University

The Lodge to City South Campus at Birmingham City University, dated 1879 and marked with the owner's initials REC, was originally associated with a now-demolished house. It is constructed of red brick and features a tiled roof adorned with ornamental ridge tiles and a prominent central ribbed chimney stack. The building has a roughly cruciform layout, with a gable facing the road that is half-timbered and includes brick nogging, as well as two arched panels of blue Japanese sunflower tiles. A hip-roofed porch is located at the angle of the building. The drive side has a half-hipped gable with intricately pierced bargeboards and a terracotta finial. The ground floor features a canted bay window, while the upper floor has a Gothic traceried window with ogee glazing bars made of white timber, flanked by panels of sunflower tiles and supported by a foliated bressumer.
