Description
North Lodge Gates form part of the Gilston House estate and date from the earlier 19th century. The lodge is built of whin rubble with broached ashlar dressings and raised margins. It is a single-storey building with a central door set within a gabled porch supported by four timber columns. To the right of the door is a window and two further windows to the left, the outer ones featuring moulded wooden mullion and transom crosses. The roof is slated, jerkin-headed, with ashlar octagonal shafted stacks. A one-window gable is present, as are two one-window jerkin-headed rear wings linked at the rear by a central door. Later alterations include a bipartite window to the right, and to the left, the original window retains a slanted slab hood. The property is approached by two chamfered ashlar gatepiers with projecting caps.
