What is recorded here

Detached three-bay single-storey former gate lodge, c.1860, now in use as a private house. uPVC casement windows. Smooth rendered façade, almost completely covered in foliage. Small segmental-arched window with Y-tracery in the west wall. Hipped slate roof with central rendered chimney stack. Set inside entrance screen comprising rendered, ruled and lined square plan gate piers surmounted by eagles and flanking pedestrian gateways in roughcast rendered wall, all containing wrought-iron gates.
This small former gate lodge to Finnstown House is beautifully set not only in its own pleasant gardens but also the grounds leading up to the former main house. The lodge is greatly complemented by the large and imposing entrance ensemble for the main house, which contains highly idiosyncratic wrought-iron gates.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
