Description

West Lodge at Whittingehame House is a single-storey gate lodge designed by Sir Robert Smirke around 1820, showcasing Greek classical architecture in an L-plan layout. The building is constructed from Cullalo ashlar and features a cill course, entablature, and a moulded cornice. Its frontages resemble a temple with three bays on each arm, each bay containing tall windows. The north-south arm has a return bay, and there is a porch positioned at the angle, featuring an unfluted Doric column at the southwest angle and a pier at the southeast. The porch includes a vertically paned, fanlit door, with a deep, blind opening balanced at right angles. Above the porch is a blocking course.

To the north, there is a low red sandstone outbuilding. The lodge has sash and case windows with a 12-pane glazing pattern, and the roof is covered with grey slates, featuring coped grouped stacks along the north-south ridge.

The quadrants and gatepiers consist of ashlar with moulded coping and a base course, with square piers at intervals and larger gatepiers, also with moulded coping. A heavy chain is strung between the piers, and there are simple wrought-iron gates.
