Lodges are stucco over serpentine rubble with octogonal roofs behind parapets, the left hand lodge with the original scantle slate, the right hand lodge, asbestos slate. Brick chimneys over the walls opposite the entrance. Granite ashlar flanking walls and piers. 2 octagonal plan lodges; each of one room plan, the left hand one the living room with larger fireplace; the right hand one the sleeping chamber. The lodges flank the gateway at the entrance to the carriageway, one principal pier remaining. To left and right are low quadrant-on-plan walls with terminal piers. The single storey octagonal lodges have stone coped parapets; the 3 outer faces of each lodge have central round-headed blind or blocked openings, the inner ones doorways. At the rear are similar openings with doorways near the gateway; the left hand lodge has an old 2-light casement surviving in the bay next to the doorway. Between the 2 lodges, flanking the gateway, the remaining of 2-gate piers is rusticated granite ashlar with moulded cornice and cap, square-on-plan, and smaller half piers attached to the lodges are similar. Flanking the outer side of the lodges are low square-coped screen walls ramped at either end with square-on-plan terminal gate piers, at left and right, with square cap stones.
