Description

The main gateway to Lindridge, including a lodge inside the gates and to the northwest, was built around 1920 for Lord Cable, the owner of Lindridge House. The original design included a second lodge that was never constructed. The gateway is rendered, possibly in concrete, and features wrought iron gates.

The lodge has a hipped slate roof behind a parapet and end stacks. The exterior showcases elaborate wrought iron gates flanked by square gate piers with sunk panels, moulded caps, and brackets. The walls curve outward to the left and right, featuring piers and sections of straight curtain wall with pilasters, ball finials, and strapwork finials. The small rectangular single-storey lodge has a moulded platband below the parapet, a central porch with a round-headed doorway that includes a keyblock and carved panel, and 12-pane sash windows on either side. The rear elevation, facing the road, has a central doorway with a round-headed fanlight, 12-pane sashes on either side, and small round windows flanking the door.

Although the interior was not inspected, it is noted that Lord Cable made several improvements to Lindridge, which burned down in the 1960s, including the layout of formal gardens. The gateway and lodge, which incorporate elements from the 17th century, serve as the principal entrance to the park surrounding the house, which remains intact.
