Description
Victoria Tower Lodge and Gates to Black Rod Garden is a Grade I listed building constructed around 1850-1860 by Sir Charles Barry and Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin, as part of the rebuilding of the Palace of Westminster for the Houses of Parliament. The lodge is made of magnesian limestone and features a Gothic/Tudor domestic style. It is a small, octagonal structure with one storey, showcasing a pointed arched doorway on the side and small cusped lancet lights. The building has a stepped and weathered plinth, a scroll moulded string capping at the wall head with miniature crewel cresting, and a pyramidal stone roof. The Tudor-Gothic gate piers are panelled and adorned with Puginesque Gothic ironwork on the gates.
