Old Lodge Approximately 100 Metres to South-West of Burton Constable Hall

Old Lodge, located approximately 100 metres to the south-west of Burton Constable Hall, is a gatehouse that has been converted into offices. It was built in the mid to late 18th century by James Wyatt for William Constable, with later additions and alterations including wings added around 1830-1840. The structure is made of pinkish-brown brick in Flemish bond, featuring ashlar dressings and concealed roofs of lead and Welsh slate.

The building consists of seven bays in total. The central bay has a two-storey arch with a single-storey section above, flanked by three-storey, single-bay octagonal turrets, and single-bay, two-storey wings on either side. Long, single-storey, single-bay wings are attached to each side, with walls that curve in plan and end in octagonal turret-piers. The building has a chamfered plinth and a central Tudor-arched carriage opening with a double-hollow-chamfered surround and double gates, topped with a shield at the centre.

Above the carriage opening, there is a 12-pane Yorkshire sash window under a hollow-chamfered hoodmould with label stops. The turrets feature entrances that are similarly designed to the inner returns, with elliptically-arched, six-fielded-panel doors. The front facade has a single narrow window on each floor, also under hollow-chamfered hoodmoulds with label stops. The ground floor of the wings has six-pane Yorkshire sashes, while the first floor features a casement window to the left and an eight-pane Yorkshire sash to the right, all under similar hoodmoulds. The outer wings have 12-pane Yorkshire sashes with matching hoodmoulds.

All bays are topped with hollow-chamfered cornices and embattled parapets, and there are projecting embattled stacks on the sides of the 18th-century structure. The flanking walls extend approximately five metres, featuring chamfered plinths and battlements, with end octagonal piers.

Inside, the turrets contain spiral staircases, six-fielded-panel doors, and some rooms have revealed rafters. The end piers were built to house earth closets.
