Detached three-bay single-storey L-plan gate lodge, built c. 1870, with projections and mid-late twentieth-century lean-to porch to front re-entrant angle. Overhanging pitched and hipped slate roof with profiled ridge tiles and exposed rafter tails, pierced bargeboards and timber finials to gables on profiled timber brackets, and cast-iron rainwater goods. Tall red brick chimneystacks with brick banding. Red brick walling laid in Flemish bond with black brick bands and rock-faced snecked limestone plinth. Square-headed window openings having brick reveals and gauged brick lintels, granite sills and two-over-two pane timber sliding sash windows. Glazed door fittings to recent porch. Adjacent to north entrance to Hampstead Estate, with mature trees to setting.
