NY3856 NEWTOWN ROAD 671-1/5/219 (North side) 13/11/72 Crozier Lodge, Cumberland Infirmary

GV II

House, now doctors' residence for hospital. 1820s with early C20 alterations. Calciferous sandstone ashlar on chamfered plinth, with sill band, cornice and solid parapet. Greenslate mansard roof; ashlar end chimney stacks. 2 storeys, 3 bays, with lower single-bay flanking wings. Central panelled door and patterned radial fanlight, up steps, in pilastered open-pedimented doorcase. Sash windows with glazing bars in stone reveals. Three C20 boxed casement dormers. Wings have Venetian windows, those on ground floor (originally doorways) with blind side lights. INTERIOR has C20 doors in fluted wooden architraves and internal panelled shutters. Moulded plaster ceiling cornices and round-arched niche in principal room. Staircase in right wing. Thomas McAdam lived here in 1828 (Pigot & Co Directory); it became the House of Recovery in 1847. Photographs show that the mansard roof was added in the early C20. The date of 1820 given on the previous listing is suspect, as this was the date of the founding of the House of Recovery (Fever Hospital). Not to be confused with Crozier Lodge on Clift Street which is C20.
