Lodge, Gate Piers, Gates To Cliff House And Flanking Walls

The lodge, gate piers, gates to Cliff House, and flanking walls were built in the early 19th century. They are constructed from coursed squared edge-tooled gritstone, with a slate roof on the lodge, and feature ashlar piers and walls, along with cast-iron gates and railings.

The two-storey lodge includes a canted bay facing the drive, sash windows with glazing bars set in moulded stone architraves, and carved panels at floor level. It has a moulded eaves cornice and tall corniced ashlar stacks. The inner and outer gate piers are square in section with a chamfered base, a moulded cornice, and flattened pyramid capstones, although the inner capstones are missing. A curved wall extends from the outer piers to a pair of larger piers that display vermiculated rustication.

The gates consist of inner two-leaf and outer pedestrian gates that have bars, dog bars, locks, top rails, X-braces, and floriate finials. The interior has not been inspected. A plaque on the right gate pier commemorates the gift of the house and grounds by Stephen Cliff Esq to the City of Leeds in 1929.
