Description
East Lodge, House of Falkland, is a single-storey and attic Tudor lodge, likely designed by William Burn around 1844. It features a steep-pitched roof with dormers that break the wallhead, adorned with decorative timber bargeboarding. There is a later single-storey extension to the southwest. The building is constructed from coursed, stugged sandstone with ashlar margins and has a base course. The window openings are chamfered, with some featuring stone mullions and stepped hoodmoulding. The eaves are deep and overhanging with bracketed supports, and there are two tall diamond-shafted ridge chimney stacks. A gabled dormer is located on the east side.
On the west elevation, there is a central gabled porch that contains a timber panelled entrance door, with a lancet window above it. The north elevation has an off-centre canted bay window with a gabled dormer breaking the wallhead above, and a slightly lower bay to the right with a piended roof. The windows are predominantly fixed timber with four panes. The roof is covered with grey slates.
The gatepiers consist of a pair of square-plan, coped structures with acorn finials, accompanied by similar flanking pedestrian gatepiers. There are balustrades to the east and west featuring urn balusters.
