Belleville Park

Detached three-bay single-storey gate lodge, c.1855, retaining original fenestration with single-bay single-storey gabled projecting porch to centre. Extended, c.1930, comprising three-bay single-storey lean-to return along rear (north) elevation. Now disused. Pitched slate roof (gabled to porch; lean-to to return) with clay ridge tiles, rendered chimney stack, and cast-iron rainwater goods on overhanging timber eaves. Painted rendered walls with rendered stringcourses to gables. Unpainted rendered walls to additional range over random rubble stone construction. Square-headed window openings with cut-stone sills, cut-stone surrounds, and 1/1 timber sash windows having diamond-leaded panels. Camber-headed door opening with two cut-stone steps, moulded surround, and timber panelled door. Set back from line of road in grounds shared with Belleville Park.

A picturesque small-scale gate lodge that retains most of its original form and fabric, despite the fact that it is now long disused. Features such as the diamond glazing to the window openings, and the overhanging eaves, enhance the architectural quality of the composition. The gate lodge, together with the attendant gateway (22902123/WD-21-23), forms an integral component of the Belleville Park estate, and contributes to the visual appeal of the locality.
