Description
Londonderry Lodge, formerly known as Lawsons Cafe, is a house that has been converted into a cafe. It dates from the mid-18th century and is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond, which has been whitewashed. The building features a graduated stone slate roof and is two storeys tall with four bays.
The right-hand bay contains a half-glazed door with an overlight, set under a stuccoed flat arch with voussoirs. All the windows are 8-pane sashes with stone cills. The ground floor windows have stuccoed flat arches with voussoirs, while the first-floor windows feature flat brick arches. The eaves are dentilled, and there are shaped kneelers with stone coping. The building has end stacks and one stack at the ridge.
On the left side, there is a brick semicircular bay on the ground floor, which features a curved tripartite window. This window has a central 16-pane sash flanked by 8-pane sashes, all topped with a frieze, cornice, and a lead half-domed roof.
