Description
Burrows Cross Lodge is a lodge built between 1885 and 1886 by architect R. Norman Shaw. It features red brick on the lower level and is tile hung above, with a plain tiled roof that extends down in a pentice to the front facing the street. The building is two storeys high in the gable and has one storey and an attic behind, which includes a leaded casement dormer. There is a rear ridge stack and additional stacks on the left side.
The entrance front is positioned at right angles to the road. To the left, there is a projecting gable with bargeboarding, which has a four-light leaded window on the first floor. A further gable is set back to the right, also with a first-floor window. The left gable jetties out on diagonal wood bracing and has a continuous leaded window on its left side, along with a ribbed door in a wooden surround with an arched entrance at the left corner. There is also a six-light window to the left in the pentice extension.
On the left-hand return front, facing the street, there is one window to the left and an additional door. A gabled extension is located to the left, along with further extensions to the rear. The lodge is included for its group value.
