Description

West Lodge at Leith Hall is a late 19th-century gatelodge featuring three bays and a single storey with an attic. The building has a symmetrical design, highlighted by a central entrance porch supported by rustic columns, with 4-pane sash and case windows on either side at ground level. The front elevation is constructed from Aberdeen bond black granite, accented with sandstone dressings, while the side elevations are rendered, and there is a slate-roofed lean-to addition at the rear. The pitched roof of the porch rises above the eaves at the center, and there are two dormer windows with 6-pane sash and case glazing set in a steeply pitched slated roof, which also has overhanging bracketed eaves similar to those of the porch.

At the rear, there are single ground-floor windows on each gable end, and end stacks are present. The gatelodge is complemented by square-plan gatepiers topped with ball finials, which are part of the curved boundary walls made of rubble and crenellated with rubble copings. The elaborate wrought-iron gates, dating from around 1900, feature a monogram "CENLH" for Charles Edward Norman Hay-Leith and consist of two leaves at the center, with two pedestrian gates on either side. Additionally, there is a small round-headed post-box from the Edwardian period attached to the gate on the left.
