What is recorded here
Detached single-bay single-storey gate lodge, built c.1800, having pedimented porch to south and lean-to extension to north. Hipped slate roof having brick chimneystack with ceramic pot. Squared coursed limestone and sandstone walls with cut limestone quoins and pediment. Square-headed window openings with limestone surrounds and replacement aluminium windows. Square-headed opening to porch, door not visible. Aluminium frames to square-headed window openings.
Although modest in size this gate lodge has been constructed using the finest materials and displays skilled stone masonry in the cut limestone details. The form of this building is typical for gate lodges of this period, but the classical portico on the main elevation reflects the status of the main house. It forms an imposing entrance with the associated entrance gates.
This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
