What is recorded here

Lennox Castle Hospital, South Gate Lodge stands in East Dunbartonshire as a surviving gate lodge, its exact period unrecorded but its purpose clear in the hierarchy of the estate. It marks the threshold where private land began and public road ended, a boundary made visible through stone rather than line. The lodge may have guided visitors past guards, carried letters to administrators, or simply watched cars arrive and leave. Its survival suggests the gate mattered enough to build, and the hospital mattered enough to remember.
