Gilling Lodge

Gilling Lodge is a house built in the early to mid-19th century for the Roper family. It features coursed rubble construction and stone slate roofs, with a U-shaped plan. The main block has a double-depth layout, is two storeys high with a loft, and consists of five bays. There is a two-storey service wing on the rear left and a single-storey range on the rear right. The south elevation has quoins and a central part-glazed door with diagonal glazing bars set in an ashlar architrave. The ground floor has 4-pane sash windows with concrete lintels, while the first floor features flat arches above the windows. The building has shaped kneelers and ashlar coping, with corniced stacks at the ends. An outbuilding extending from the rear left wing is not of special interest.
