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:

    The frost was on the village roofs as white as ocean foam;
    The good red fires were burning bright in every ‘longshore home;
    The windows sparkled clear, and the chimneys volleyed out;
    And I vow we sniffed the victuals as the vessel went about.
    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)

    Mothers of America
    let your kids go to the movies!
    get them out of the house so they won’t know what you’re up to
    it’s true that fresh air is good for the body
    but what about the soul
    that grows in darkness, embossed by silvery images
    Frank O’Hara (1926–1966)
