Description

The Royal Cornhill Hospital Lodge, located at 32 Westburn Road in Aberdeen, was designed by William Ramage around 1855. This single-storey, three-bay lodge is built in a T-plan layout and features later additions to the west. The exterior is constructed from tooled coursed granite ashlar, which is finely finished at the margins. It has a battered base course, recessed cills, strip quoins, and overhanging eaves supported by oversized timber brackets.

The principal elevation is symmetrical, with a gabled entrance bay that is advanced to the center of the ground floor. It features a round-arched doorway accessed by four stone steps, with radial voussoirs, a keystone, and impost details. The entrance is adorned with a panelled timber door and a boarded timber fanlight, with tall single-pane windows on either side and additional windows in the flanking bays.

The north elevation is also symmetrical and gabled, showcasing a window with a cornice and consoles set in an advanced plane at the center, flanked by impost details on either side.

The west elevation is obscured by a flat-roofed harled addition from the 20th century.

The south elevation mirrors the north, being symmetrical and gabled, with a centrally placed window that has a cornice and consoles, flanked by impost details. It also has a harled 20th-century addition adjoining to the left.

The lodge predominantly features four-pane timber sash and case windows, a grey slate roof with a lead ridge, and coped paired granite gablehead stacks linked by an arch to the west, along with a circular chimney can. The rainwater goods are made of cast iron.

The interior was not seen in 1999.
