Description
East Lodge at Whittingehame House is a single-storey gate lodge, likely designed by William Burn around 1827, in a Greek classical style. The building features Cullalo ashlar stone with cill and blocking courses, and architraved openings.
On the southeast elevation, there is an advanced five-bay block, with the outer left bay being an indistinguishable addition from around 1986. The central pedimented porch is supported by fluted Doric columns and has a two-leaf panelled door, with windows in the flanking bays that are narrower in the outer bays. The outer left bays are recessed, and while they were added sensitively around 1986, there is a regrettable later conservatory attached.
The east and west elevations include a canted bay on the east end and modern harled extensions on the west end. The north elevation originally had a slightly advanced center with a doorway above which is a panel, flanked by windows. There is a flat-roofed low rectangular outbuilding added to the outer right, which intercepts a window, and a modern harled addition has replaced the original flat-roofed outbuilding.
The sash and case windows feature a 12-pane glazing pattern, and there are corniced ashlar stacks with some decorative cans still retained. The flat roof has replaced a shallow piend. Square corniced ashlar gatepiers are located by the porch.
