Description
Carter's Cross is an early 18th-century building located on Lodge Lane in Westerham. It stands two storeys high with an attic and features three windows. The roof is tiled and includes two modern flat dormers. The structure is made of red brick with some blue headers, and it has end pilasters that rise through the parapet above a moulded brick cornice. The sash windows, which are of varying ages, have gauged brick arches and near-flush moulded frames, with the ground floor windows featuring glazing bars. There is a six-panel door, with the two upper panels being glazed, set within a moulded wood architrave and sheltered by a 19th-century gabled porch. To the left, there is a two-storey, one-window gabled extension. Carter's Cross is part of a group with Tudor Cottage, White House, Bibury, Nos 1 to 4, and Bank Cottage, along with Corner Cottage on High Street.
