Peebles, Edinburgh Road, Venlaw Castle Hotel, North Lodge — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Venlaw Castle Hotel, North Lodge stands on Edinburgh Road in Peebles as a late 19th-century gate lodge built around 1880, accompanied by a gate pier and wall from the same century. It marks the entrance to a larger estate rather than serving as an ordinary house, shaping how visitors first met the property. The stone work still frames that threshold, inviting imagination about the carriages, servants and guests who passed through without revealing whether the lodge remains open to public entry.
