Description
This is a lodge, built around 1903 by the firm of Adams Holden and Pearson, originally serving as an entrance lodge to the King Edward VII tubercular sanatorium. It is constructed in a Free Tudor style, with a square plan and built from brick, topped by a pyramidal tiled roof with a central, tall, octagonal brick chimney stack. The lodge is one storey high with attics. It features wooden casement windows with leaded lights. Recessed gables with attic windows are centrally positioned on each side, with continuously glazed bays projecting to form square corners. The original entrance door, located in the north-east corner, has three top glazed panels and flanking sidelights. A photograph in an article published in "Architectural Review" in 1906 shows the building already completed by that year.
