Description
The Lodge at Pitkerro House, designed by Sir Robert Lorimer in 1902, is a single-storey building with an attic and an irregular plan. It features a design reminiscent of the 17th century, complemented by classical gatepiers. The exterior is harled with ashlar dressings and topped with a grey slate roof. The building has a rubble base course, moulded eaves that incorporate lintels of the dormer heads, 6-pane casement windows, shaped gable dormer heads, deep eaves, a piended bell-cast roof, swept eaves, and uPVC rainwater goods.
On the northeast elevation, there is a two-leaf door with glazed panels at the top and ashlar margins set within a recessed rounded bay to the right, which has a sculpted lozenge panel above. To the left, there is a bay with off-centre bipartite windows and a slightly corbelled attic floor featuring a dormer head at the centre. There is also a blank recessed lean-to bay on the left, which is coped and extends to a masking wall at the far left.
The west elevation showcases a rounded staircase bay that is advanced at the centre, featuring a stair window under the eaves and a semi-ogival roof.
On the south elevation, the main bay contains a bipartite window at the centre, with a chamfered angle on the left that has a 4-light window, corbelled to a square at the attic floor, and a dormer head at the centre. There is a blank lean-to and a flat-roofed bay recessed to the right.
The gatepiers and gates consist of two ashlar gatepiers adorned with nailhead panels and a patera-frieze, topped with a broken and open pediment. These are flanked by lower walls featuring volutes and ivy-covered quadrants. The ornate wrought-iron gates and arch display a monogram and heraldic shield.
