Demijohn Cottage, Norton House Hotel , Edinburgh

Demijohn Cottage, located at the Norton House Hotel in Edinburgh, is a single-storey lodge designed in the style of David Bryce in the mid-19th century. It has an asymmetrical, gabled, L-plan layout constructed from squared and snecked whinstone, featuring sandstone ashlar dressings and chamfered margins, along with contrasting quoins.

The south elevation showcases four large masonry blocks, with an advanced gabled bay on the outer left and a gabled porch immediately to the right. The original door has been blocked and replaced with a window. There are two additional windows in the bays to the right. A modern addition is located to the east, which includes an entrance.

The windows are modern plate glass casement and top-hopper types. The lodge has broad, bracketed eaves with plain bargeboards and finials on the gable, and it is topped with a grey slate roof. The shouldered, corniced stacks have chamfered angles.

A modern rubble wall separates the lodge from the avenue leading to Norton House.

The boundary wall consists of stugged coursed red sandstone with ashlar semi-circular coping, and there are ashlar gatepiers topped with corniced, conical caps.
