Description
The Gate House and attached walls and gate piers are a lodge built in 1838, designed in a Castellated Gothic style. The structure is made of red brick and features a brick stack with an octagonal shaft and a crenellated cap. The lodge is roughly L-shaped and includes a two-storey octagonal tower with a bold parapet string and a crenellated parapet. The windows are glazing bar casements with returned hood moulds, with the first-floor windows having a continuous design.
Attached to the lodge are brick walls topped with cast iron coping that splay outwards towards the road. To the right of the lodge, there is a four-centred pedestrian gateway and a pair of square gate piers topped with acorn finials. At the rear, the octagonal tower is connected by a porch to a square tower, which has an attached wall linking the lodge to the coach house and stable block.
