South Lodge to Windsor Gardens

Picturesque small park lodge in domestic revival style. Flemish bond red brick and tile with some half-timbering; roughly coursed and squared low stone plinth topped with chamfered black bricks. Plain tiled roof with ridge cresting, and axial stack on main gabled range. Pale stone surrounds to ground floor windows and doors except in rear. Balanced asymmetrical composition in compact plan comprising two-storeyed central gabled range with lower flanking bays, each with porch entrance.

Gabled main front range has half timbering at gable apex projecting on timber corbels, tile hanging to upper storey with 3-light timber casement window with small upper panes, advanced on timber brackets. Larger ground floor 3-light stone-mullioned window comprising central sash and flanking casements, all with small upper panes. Similar arrangement to rear gable but with smaller ground floor two and four pane sash windows with pale stone sills and brick lintels, and doorway to right. Projecting outshuts containing stores flank the rear gable.

Narrow left hand one and a half storey bay has roof with overhanging eaves advanced as cat slide over porch to front. Left side gable has pair of two-light casement windows with stone surrounds to ground floor and two-light timber window lighting stairs in gable apex above. Longer right-hand bay has hipped roof with overhanging eaves advanced over porch with small half-timbered gable advanced over entrance. Right hand return has paired two-light casement windows with mullion. Porches to either side rest on turned-wood columns in hourglass shapes atop concrete balustrades with vase shaped balusters and cuboid posts. Lozenge pattern red and black floor tiles to porches.

Modernised as an ice cream parlour, though original interior partitions and fireplaces were lost much earlier than this. Cornices to ground floor servery and dining area. Exposed timber lintels to first floor windows. Timber balustrade to staircase.
