Red House (Woodlands)

Red House is the name of junction 38 of the A1(M), where it meets the A638, 4 miles north of Doncaster and ¾ of a mile north of Woodlands, South Yorkshire, England. South of the junction, the A638 follows the route of the historic Great North Road to Doncaster. North of the junction the A1 (no longer motorway class) heads towards Barnsdale Bar and West Yorkshire.

The junction is named after the farm house that stands at the junction. Whilst this is made of red brick, it is also painted a deeper shade of red.

Red House is in the (historic) Barnsdale Forest area.

Famous quotes containing the words red and/or house:

    Now wait a minute. You listen to me. I’m an advertising man, not a red herring. I’ve got a job, a secretary, a mother, two ex- wives, and several bartenders dependent on me. And I don’t intend to disappoint them all by getting myself slightly killed.
    Ernest Lehman (b.1920)

    I who was a house full of bowel movement,
    I who was a defaced altar,
    I who wanted to crawl toward God
    could not move nor eat bread.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
