Statement of Interest

The lodge is presumed to date from the creation of Reres Hill into a public park in 1868. The OS map shows the building as a Police Station. The lodge is listed for its group value with the Jubilee Arch in Reres Park, and Armistead and Seabourne Lodges on the south side of Monifieth Road.
