The lodge to Elderwood (Image). It was built in 1887, possibly to the designs of Sidney Smith. With its shaped gables and decorative plasterwork it's a jolly little building. It is within the Elderwood Road Conservation Area. In its planning paper Lambeth council described it as an "Outdoor Relief Station" which makes it sound a bit like a public toilet.
