Description
The entrance lodge, gates, piers, and walls located to the south-east of Grimston Lodge were built around 1840 by Decimus Burton for Lord Londesborough. Constructed from magnesian limestone ashlar, the lodge features a concealed roof and wrought-iron gates. It is a single-storey building with three bays, including a central projection. The exterior includes quoins, a plinth, and an entrance on the gable that consists of a four-panel, part-glazed door beneath a hood. There is a canted bay window with multi-paned casements, while the other windows are 12-pane sashes set in ashlar surrounds with aprons. The lodge is topped with a moulded cornice and a low parapet, and it has central stacks.
The square piers have recessed panels and a dentil frieze, topped with a moulded cornice, ball finials, and flags. The double gates feature pedestrian gates adorned with decorative ironwork and an ornamental overthrow. The adjoining walls are curved in plan, with a plinth, cornice, and frieze that end in square piers with a cornice and ball finials.
