Description
The Lodge of Cambridge General Cemetery, built in 1843 by E B Lamb, is designed in the Elizabethan Tudor style. It is constructed of grey gault brick with red brick drapery and stone dressings. The building has two storeys and features two-light casement windows with stone mullions, leaded diamond lattices, and triangular bay windows. The gables are acutely pointed, and the roof is covered with octagonal slates, complemented by two paired stacks.
