Description

The gate piers and quadrant walls at North Lodge, Forglen House, date from around 1865 and are likely the work of A and W Reid of Elgin. This two-storey, two-bay lodge features harled walls with cream ashlar margins, a base course, and a band course.

On the southeast elevation, there is a door to the left of center set within a projecting gabled porch. To the right, an advanced gabled bay has a window on each floor. The northeast elevation has two windows at ground level and two at the first floor, which break the eaves in gabled dormerheads; all windows are currently blocked.

The southwest elevation is gabled and has a two-bay bow at ground level. The band course continues as an eaves course to the bow, which features a balcony above with an ornate cast-iron balustrade adorned with finials. There is a window at the first floor. A later lean-to addition is present at ground level to the east. The lodge has sash and case windows with a four-pane glazing pattern, grey slates, pierced Vitruvian scroll and pendant-detail barge boards, elaborate cast-iron brattishing, and finials on the gables. A large, corniced ashlar central stack with four panelled flues and retained octagonal cans is also notable.

The gate piers and quadrants consist of square, corniced ashlar piers linked to the lodge on the east by low ashlar coped quadrant walls with spear-head railings. The original wooden gates are missing.
