Description

Lion Lodge, including the gate piers, is a pair of single-storey square lodges built between 1773 and 1778, likely designed by Robert Mylne. The lodges are constructed of red brick and feature Portland stone quoins, string courses, cornice mouldings, and a plinth. The fronts have altered windows that are set under semi-circular headed arches. The roofs are slate and pyramidal, with central stacks. There are two pairs of rusticated Portland stone gate piers, although one is missing, and the inner pair is adorned with couchant lions.
