Grand Lodge, Heaton Park, Manchester
This view was taken from inside the park walking towards the Grand Lodge exit.
In 1807 Sir Thomas Egerton employed John Webb to make alterations to the park laid out by William Eames in the late 1700s as a setting for Heaton Hall. The alterations included building a 4 mile long boundary wall and the Grand Lodge gatehouse designed by Lewis Wyatt, which became the main formal entrance to the estate. The living quarters for the lodge keeper are on either side of the arch, joined by steps across the top. The lodge is now available for weekend breaks and holiday lettings.
