Description
East Lodge at Cowick Hall is a gate lodge, likely built between 1752 and 1760 by James Paine for Henry Pleydell Dawnay, the third Viscount Downe. There were 19th and 20th-century additions to the center and some alterations. The original turrets are made of rusticated limestone ashlar, while the central additions are of rendered brick, topped with a concrete tile roof.
The lodge features a plan with a pair of octagonal turrets that originally flanked the entrance drive, along with a 2-room central addition. The northeast front is single-storey and divided into three sections. The central section has two blind round-headed panels beneath a hipped roof and is flanked by the turrets, which have plinths and chamfered rustication. Each turret has a single window at the front, with 20th-century two-light casements set beneath keyed lintels. The turrets also feature corbelled eaves and octagonal roofs, with a central octagonal stack on the left turret and a later rendered side stack on the right.
At the rear of the central range, there is a semicircular opening with a central glazed door and sidelights that have glazing bars. This lodge is one of a pair, with the other lodge to the west having been demolished in the 1960s.
