Holyrood Lodge, Queen's Drive, Holyrood Palace, Edinburgh

Holyrood Lodge, located on Queen's Drive near Holyrood Palace in Edinburgh, was designed by Robert Matheson and completed in 1857. This single-storey building with an attic features an irregular plan and a gabled design, showcasing decorative curvilinear bargeboarding and diamond flues. It currently serves as a visitors centre, having been adapted in 2007. The exterior is constructed of droved, snecked ashlar with a base course.

The entrance elevation faces north and includes an off-centre, projecting gabled entrance porch, which has a Tudor-arched door surround and a boarded timber entrance door on its east face. The building is adorned with timber finials on the gables and has a date plaque on the south side inscribed with "VR 1857."

Most of the windows are timber casements with two panes, and the roof is covered with graded grey slates. A central ridge stack features corniced diamond flues. The interior has been comprehensively modernised, although it was only partially seen in 2007.
