Description
North Lodges at Lulworth Castle are gate lodges and a gateway built in 1785. The walls are made of ashlar stone on a brick backing, and the lodges have 20th-century concrete roofs. They are two storeys tall, triangular in shape, with rounded turrets at the corners. The design is in the Gothic style, inspired by Lulworth Castle. There is a moulded string course at the first-floor level and a moulded cornice beneath an embattled parapet. The main windows have two lights, each featuring a 4-centred head within a square surround. The doorways, located in the northwest walls, also have 4-centred heads. The turrets include loop-lights that are trefoiled at both the top and bottom. Few internal fittings remain. The gateway has two narrow openings with segmental heads on either side of the main gates, which are plain wrought iron and hung from rectangular piers. These piers have round-headed niches below oval panels that display the weld arms and the date. The site is also a Scheduled Ancient Monument.
