Description

Tower Lodge is an early 19th-century house that was intended to serve as a lodge for Wyresdale Tower, a shooting lodge that was never completed and now stands in ruins. The building is constructed of rubble and features a hipped slate roof. It has a rectangular shape with rounded corners and is designed in the Gothick style.

Although it appears to have two storeys, there are no original first-floor windows. The south wall, which faces the road, has two windows with plain stone surrounds that have pointed heads. These windows now contain modern casements, with glazing bars that create a Y-tracery effect above. Above and between the windows is a blank quatrefoil with a circular stone surround. To the right, under the eaves, there is a modern window with plain reveals. The central chimney is also a notable feature.

On the west wall, there are two similar window surrounds; the left one is blank while the right one has Gothick glazing. Above and between these windows is another blank quatrefoil, similar to the one on the south wall. The door, located between the two bays, has a pointed head.
