Description
Cock Gate is a lodge dating from the 1870s, built for the Lawson family as an entrance feature to Brayton Hall. It is constructed of dressed red sandstone with angle pilasters and battlemented gable parapets, roofed with Welsh slate and featuring a brick chimney stack. The lodge is two storeys high and has three bays. The central bay is recessed, flanked by two two-storey gabled bays. The upper floor of the central bay has a circular window with patterned glazing bars. Other windows are sash windows with glazing bars intersecting in pointed heads, all set beneath hoodmoulds. A 20th-century stone porch has been added to the right-hand return wall, and 20th-century windows are present on the rear elevation.
