Description

The Main Lodge at Whittingehame House, likely designed by Eustace Balfour and dated 1911, is a two-storey Arts and Crafts gate lodge. It features a second storey that breaks the eaves at intervals. The exterior is constructed of pink rake-jointed rubble with droved ashlar dressings and a base course.

On the west elevation, there is a slightly advanced gabled bay on the outer left with chamfered corners, which is corbelled to a square at eaves level and has small windows. Additional small windows are located on the return elevations and in the gablehead. The doorway is set in a re-entrant, featuring a door with a small-paned upper panel and a dated lintel above. There is a square window under the eaves above the doorway, with flanking windows to the right at ground level. The outer right side has a large area of blank wall.

The east elevation has three asymmetrical bays, with a wide advanced gabled bay at the center. The doorway is off-center to the left of the gable, and there is a stone mullioned bipartite window in the gable head. A ground floor window is located in the recessed right bay, and a gabled dormer breaks the eaves for the first-floor window. There is a narrower ground floor window in the recessed outer left. A modern lean-to outbuilding flanks the doorway. The sash and case windows have a small-pane glazing pattern. The roof is covered with grey-green slates and features swept eaves. There is a gablehead stack on the west and a wallhead stack flanking the center bay to the south, along with decorative gutter fixtures.

The gatepier is made of square red sandstone ashlar and has a pyramid cap, representing the remainder of a pair, with simple wrought-iron railings attached to the house.
