Detached three-bay single-storey former gate lodge, built c.1860, with recent extension to rear (south) elevation. Pitched roof with cut limestone eaves course with brackets, and rendered chimneystack. Dressed limestone walls with raised cut-stone quoins. Round-headed window openings, triple to west elevation, with raised cut-stone surrounds and sills with replacement timber windows. Round-headed door opening with carved limestone doorcase comprising archivolt with keystone supported on piers, flanked by pilasters, all with capitals and plinths. Round-headed double-leaf glazed timber panelled door. Cut limestone boundary wall to front of site with wrought-iron pedestrian gate.

This attractive gate lodge once formed part of the Garbally extate. Although extended considerably to the rear it retains its essential character and appearance, making it an eye-catching feature along the road, along with its accompanying gateway.
