Description

Cumloden Lodge is an earlier 19th-century single storey and attic lodge with an asymmetrical gabled design. It is constructed of rubble with granite dressings and features bull-faced granite margins and timber mullions. The steeply pitched roof has deep overhanging eaves.

On the east elevation, there is an advanced gabled bay to the right, which includes a 2-light window, a window in the timbered gablehead, and a small window on the south return. To the left, there is a window flanking the gabled bay and a 3-light window further left.

The north elevation features an advanced gable to the left with a lean-to at the ground floor, which has a 2-light window and a window on the east return.

The south elevation has twin gables, with the left gable advanced. There is a lean-to with a 2-light window at the ground floor and a window in the gablehead of the right gable. The left gable also has a 2-light window at the ground floor and a window in its gablehead. The windows include single lights with divided lower panels, some of which are casement and some fixed pane. The granite ridge stack has lozenge-shaped shafts on each roof, covered with graded grey slates and topped with octagonal cans.

The gatepiers consist of two bull-faced granite, corniced, square piers with a base course and polished angle margins, supporting a timber gate.
