South Gate Lodge, Ballynagard House, Culmore Road, Londonderry, BT48 8JH

A three bay wide single storey stone built lodge with brick trim, hipped slated roofs and central chimney with segmental stone porch. The principal elevation faces south. The stone porch has brick trim now painted black and cream and on either side there is a boarded-up window also with brick trim. In each gable there is a centrally placed window. There is no window to the rear. A half round PVC gutter forms the eaves on natural slated roof with blue/black ridge and hip tiles. The stonework of the lodge is random rubble schist, much of it built in the same manner as part of one of the back returns of the main house. This refers to the large binder stones used at the corners. The entrance gates consist of main wrought iron decorative double gates hung from square sandstone ashlar piers with pyramidal copings. Straight wing walls are built of rubble schist stonework with band stone coping and pierced with square headed lateral pedestrian openings each hung with single wrought iron decorative gates. These openings are brick trimmed. Curved random rubble schist walls swing out from the straight walls to the back of the footwalk to Culmore Road.
