Detached three-bay single-storey gate lodge, built c. 1820, now disused. Pyramidal slate roof with overhanging eaves, central rendered red brick chimneystack and cast-iron rainwater goods. Roughcast rendered walls. Square-headed window openings having cut stone sills and timber casement windows. Square-headed door opening with timber panelled double-leaf doors. Cut and carved limestone square-profile gate piers set in quadrant exposed rubble limestone walls to south-east, having wrought-iron double-leaf and pedestrian gates.
Attractive entrance to Dunkettle House demesne comprising skilfully executed gate piers, gates and gate lodge. The survival of the Dunkettle demesne structures adds significantly to the architectural heritage of the area.
