Site of late 19th century cart lodge, Gate Farm (EHER 81884)

Now destroyed. The site of an open-fronted probable cart lodge which formed the long east-west span of a 'T-shaped' range at the southern boundary of Gate Farm. Only the north wall remains and to its original height. This is topped with a row of tiles and has an in-filled doorway with brick surround and arch. This is similarly topped with tiles and a red tile ridge.

The site of an east-west aligned probable cart lodge which adjoined the (now destroyed) south room of the partially extant stable block to the east (EHER 81883). The structure formed the south boundary of the farmyard. It can be seen in an historic photograph in <1> and appears to be of a similar construction to the stable block which is single-storey and built of red brick, covered with a slate roof with red tile ridge. Only the north wall remains and to its original height. This is topped with a row of tiles and has an in-filled doorway with brick surround and arch. This is similarly topped with tiles and a red tile ridge. The original roofline of the building can be seen as a shadow on the east face of EHER 81885. The building is shown on the 1st edition OS map as forming the long east-west span of a 'T-shaped' range. It is depicted as open to the south. By the 2nd edition OS map, it is depicted as a separate structure, having been closed at the east end where it joins the (now demolished) south room of the stable (EHER 81883). This map shows it to be continuous with a, now separate, two-storey structure at the west end (EHER 81885). <1> <2> <3> Google Earth imagery from 2000 shows the building had been demolished by this time. The date and circumstances of destruction are not known. <4>
