Lodge At North Entrance To Grounds Of St Brandon'S School

The lodge at the north entrance to the grounds of St Brandon's School is a T-shaped building designed in the Jacobean style, dating from the mid-19th century, the same period as the school. It is constructed of coursed rubble with ashlar dressings. The lodge has one storey facing the street and two storeys in the range that extends at a right angle to the rear. It features shaped gables with finials, rusticated pilasters, and a tall chimney stack on the higher range. The roofs are covered with pantiles. The main gable end includes a small window set in an architrave surround, with cresting above on the first floor. The ground floor has a curved bow with an openwork parapet, and there is an entrance with a small loggia to the left of the gable end, topped by a shaped gable over a round-headed doorway. This lodge, along with St Brandon's School for Girls, the Fountain, an outbuilding to the north, and the boundary wall at Elton Road, forms a cohesive group.
