What is recorded here

Detached three-bay single-storey gate lodge, built c.1800, with semi-octagonal plan porch. Hipped state roof with clay ridge tiles having lead-roll ridge to porch roof, wide eaves supported on scrolled console brackets, and central brick chimneystack. Recently rendered walls with recent quoins and moulded architraves around windows and doors. Recent windows of decorative design with top-hung casements. Located behind ashlar square-profile gate piers topped with acorn finials supporting double-leaf wrought- and cast-iron gates, flanked by rubble stone curved boundary walls.

A fine gate lodge set behind the curved wall entrance to the Red Hills estate. It retains its well composed historic form despite the loss of some traditional details. The lodge is an integral element of the historic ensemble of Red Hills and its immediate setting is enhanced by the substantial piers with large decorative acorns finials and fine wrought- and cast-iron gates.
