Description

Avenue Lodge is a Grade II* listed building located in the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew, designed in 1866 by William Eden Nesfield. This simple square pavilion is a single storey structure made of red brick with a tiled roof, featuring dormers.

The building has stubby pilasters between wooden mullioned and transomed windows, and a heavy coved cornice adorned with incised pie decoration. Its steeply pitched pyramidal roof is complemented by double pedimented and segmental dormers. A massive central chimney stack showcases elaborate moulded brick ornamentation.

Avenue Lodge is an early example of the "Queen Anne" style, which was later popularized by Nesfield's former partner, Norman Shaw, in the 1870s.
