North Lodge And Gateways To Easton Neston House On Northampton Road

North Lodge and Gateways to Easton Neston House, built between 1822 and 1823 by John Raffield for the 3rd Earl of Pomfret, is a lodge, gates, and gatepiers located on Northampton Road. The structure is made of limestone ashlar and coursed squared limestone, featuring a hipped slate roof and a brick lateral stack. It has a three-unit plan and consists of one and two storeys. The entrance is marked by cast-iron gates with spear finials and tall rusticated gatepiers that have alternating bands of vermiculation, ironstone plinths, horizontal oval paterae on the frieze, and moulded cornices topped with urns and ball finials.

On either side of the main gates are round-arched pedestrian gateways, which also feature similar cast-iron gates and gatepiers. Curved stone-coped walls made of coursed squared stone flank the entrance, ending with plain piers. There is a round-arched doorway in the left wall, while the right wall extends to a two-storey lodge flanked by single-storey wings with lean-to roofs. The central block includes a six-panel door on the right, a 12-pane sash window on the ground floor left, and a nine-pane sash window on the first floor, all with wood lintels and plain brick eaves. The wings have 12-pane sash windows with wood lintels. Inside, there is an ogee-stop-chamfered spine beam.
