Gatehouse near Goodrich Edward Blore's remarkable design, once marking the entrance to Goodrich Court (also by Blore) was built in red sandstone c1837. It is a blend of the "convincingly medieval" and "picturesque Romantic Gothic". Grade II listed.
It did not look inhabited at the time.

Cedar near Goodrich (1) The layering suggested cedar to me, but I didn't get a close look.
Cedars are usually ornamental so it was probably planted by the Goodrich Court estate.
