Description
Low Lodge in Cumstoun is an early 19th century single-storey lodge featuring rubble walling with raised polished red sandstone margins. The lodge has an advanced Tuscan columned porch with a piend roof and a door that includes a diamond-pane fanlight. Flanking the door are single light windows, with all openings having hoodmoulds. The windows are sash and case, with a 2-pane lower part and a 3-pane upper part. The building has axial coped stacks, slate roofs, and deep timber bracketed eaves. There is a modern harled single-storey extension at the rear. Additionally, there are two pairs of octagonal ashlar gatepiers topped with conical caps.
