Description
Bishop's Gate and Bishop's Gate Lodge are lodges and walls that were originally part of Horsley Towers, now serving as cottages. They were built in 1860 in the Lovelace style. The structures are made of flint rubble stone with red and black brick dressings and feature hipped slate roofs. There are two lodges with curving front walls that flank the remnants of a once arched entrance gate, with estate walls extending to both sides.
Bishop's Gate, the south lodge on the right, is two storeys high and has a machicolated arcade with yellow terracotta panels at the eaves. It features four brick-dressed lancet windows on the first floor, topped by a round arched terracotta plaque. The ground floor has a half-glazed door at the centre, set under a cambered head and within a brick dentilled surround. A wall extends to the right end of the lodge, and there are remains of a gate pier attached to the left wall.
Bishop's Gate Lodge, the north lodge, is also two storeys and has a conical roof topped with a terracotta finial. It has a "T" plan with a wing at right angles to the rear and a large brick stack at the junction of the two ranges. The curved front wall features a deep, round arched, roll moulded and chamfered brick surround on the first floor, which contains a panel with one cambered head and a two-light casement window. The ground floor has three casement windows, with the centre one retaining its original glazing bars and set in striped glazed brick surrounds. There is an additional window in a pentice extension on the ground floor to the left, and a door to the right, behind the remains of gate piers, set in an arched brick surround. A single casement window is present in the street facade of the rear wing.
