- The group of buildings that forms the Bird Incubation and Rearing Centre was formerly the Zoo's North Gate. It has three sections: the former North Gate itself, flanked by a former toilet block and the former North Gate Kiosk. Built 1926, probably by Walter, Hearn and Chuter, architects. North Gate Kiosk added 1936, Tecton (Berthold Lubetkin), architects. Closed and altered for use as a store, 1975. Converted 1989-90, Colin Wears with the John S Bonnington Parternship, architects. North Gate Kiosk listed Grade II. The North Gate Kiosk, added on the east side of the North Gate, was based on Lubetkin's 1934 Shelter and Kiosk for Whipsnade and was paralleled by his Main Entrance at Dudley Zoo of 1936-37. The kiosk included a gatekeeper's lodge to the west, roofed as part of the North Gate and, beyond a passage to the exit turnstiles, a block for a cloakroom and refreshment bar.
