Description

North Lodge to Red Hall is a modest, one-and-a-half-story, three-bay gabled house, likely dating from between 1880 and 1899 and built as a gate lodge to the Red Hall estate. It was first shown on an Ordnance Survey map of 1902 and was not present on a map of 1858. The exterior walls are dry-dashed with blackstone chippings. The windows are timber sliding sash windows with a 1 over 1 glazing pattern and horns, set within segmental heads. The roof is slated but covered with bitumen. A smooth, cement-rendered chimney exists, and a turned wooden finial is present on the gable of the porch and the left-hand gable of the house, however, it is missing from the right-hand gable. The rainwater goods are made of PVC. A low, rear extension features modern, rectangular timber casement windows.

The gateway consists of a pair of large, square piers constructed of greystone rubble in courses with brick dressings; they have rough greystone copings. The top of the right-hand pier has been knocked off and lies on the ground. Screen walls of greystone rubble flank each pier, without gates. The lodge stands within a rear entrance gateway to Red Hall, situated on a lawn to the front with agricultural land to the rear. References include the Ordnance Survey Map of 1902 for County Antrim, and J.A.K. Dean's The Gate Lodges of Ulster, published by the Ulster Architectural Heritage Society in 1994, page 25.
