Description
The former lodge and screen walls to Queen's Tower, now a house, were built in 1839 for Samuel Roberts and feature late 20th century alterations. The structure is made of rock-faced stone with ashlar dressings and has slate roofs, including a square crenellated corner stack and a similar side wall stack. It is designed in a crenellated Gothic style with coped parapets.
At the center, there is a machicolated square tower with four stages, each featuring a cusped double lancet window, although the ground floor window is blocked. The right side of the building has a shouldered double lancet window above steps leading to a pointed doorway. Adjacent to this is a lower two-storey block with a parapet, a stepped coped gable, and a datestone marked 1839. This block includes a triangular oriel window topped with a steep pitched hipped lead roof and two single casements.
On either side of the tower, there are short lengths of screen wall with chamfered coping and square gables above segmental pointed doorways. The left side features a square terminal turret, while the right side has a round turret, both of which are crenellated. The interior has not been inspected.
