Description
West Lodge, including boundary walls and gatepiers, is a well-detailed single-storey, three-bay, L-plan Tudor lodge house built in the mid-19th century. It originally served as the entrance to the policies of Fintray House, which was demolished in 1956. The building features harl with a deep granite base course, a moulded eaves blocking course, and granite dressings. Notable architectural elements include a Tudor-arched doorpiece, steeply-pitched gables, hoodmoulds, a mutule cornice above the oriel window, and ball and spike finials. The structure also has voussoirs and chamfered reveals.
The entrance elevation faces southwest and includes an advanced gabled bay to the left, which has an oriel window below a blind shield. An open granite porch is supported by a massive square-plan granite pier in the re-entrant angle to the right. There is a recessed two-leaf part-glazed timber door with blind-traceried detail on the lower panels and a plate glass fanlight above. To the right, there is a set-back bay with a blind or blocked arrowslit, and a small projecting gable with arrowslits on the northwest side.
The windows are timber sash and case with a 4-pane glazing pattern. The roof is covered with grey slates, and there are coped ashlar stacks with polygonal cans and triangular ashlar-coped skews featuring moulded skewputts.
Inside, the lodge retains a simple interior with panelled timber doors, a decorative cast-iron fireplace and wall cupboard in the sitting room, and a small cast-iron fireplace in the bedroom.
The gatepiers and boundary walls consist of square-section, two-stage ashlar gatepiers. The top of the first stage features a stop-chamfer that transitions to a reduced polygonal second stage, topped with a large moulded finial and a ball and spike cap. The low boundary walls are also made of coped ashlar.
