Description

Lady Bute's Lodge is a 19th-century neo-Gothic building constructed from clunch ashlar with a slate roof. The structure features a left-hand one-storey section and a right-hand gabled wing that includes one storey and attics. There is a porch on the left side with a gabled head, and the door has a late Norman rounded head, which was removed from another site according to Pevsner. The road-facing elevation has three windows that are adorned with neo-Tudor hood moulds and stone mullions. The rear elevation includes a door and three windows, all featuring chamfered reveals.
