"Kingsland Lodge", possibly wharfinger's house.
(22.9.60) Observed name 'Wharf House' on one of the gate pillars. This visit by Eve and myself, was to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the Canal's opening. There was no one else in sight, and nothing out of the ordinary in the town, despite my letters to the mayor (which were not answered).
