Pair of Lodges and Gate at West Corner of Road to Caseley

This pair of lodges and gate, located at the west corner of the road to Caseley, was likely intended for a large house that was never constructed. Built in the mid-19th century, the lodges are made of rough, pebble-like pieces of granite in a rustic style. They feature low-pitched slated roofs with three-sided hips at the front and have an oblong plan with splayed front corners. The lodges are single-storey structures. The three-sided front elevations have 20th-century wood mullioned-and-transomed windows, with three lights on the front and two lights on the sides. Each lodge has a four-panelled door on the inward-facing sides. On the outer side of each lodge, there is an original lean-to made of the same material. The gateposts are solid, square in section, rendered, and have projecting plinths and moulded caps topped with low pyramidical caps. The gate itself consists of open woodwork with flat, diagonally-set bars forming a pyramid of inverted Vs, and on the left-hand side, there are two iron strap-hinges with spade-shaped terminals. The interiors have not been inspected.
