Gate Lodge, Aultgowrie Lodge, Fairburn House

The Gate Lodge at Aultgowrie Lodge, built in 1877 by Wardrop and Reid, is an Arts and Crafts style building with a cruciform plan. It is a single-storey structure with a dormerless attic, constructed from asymmetrical coursed stugged rubble, accented by polished ashlar dressings.

The entrance features a central door on the south side, flanked by narrow recessed windows beneath a deep timber-framed gable. This gable is supported by four wooden columns on stone plinths, creating a verandah effect. A four-light window is positioned in the centre of the gable, while a large canted bay window is located in the east gable. The building showcases decorative bargeboards with carved foliage and apex finials on the south and east sides, which face the drive and road, while simpler bargeboards are found elsewhere.

At the centre of the ridge, there is a battery of four corniced stacks. The attic features multi-pane glazing in the casements and in the upper lights of the sash windows, with two- and four-pane configurations in the lower sashes.

The property is also marked by gate piers and gates, consisting of two pairs of octagonal ashlar gate piers topped with shallow pyramidal caps. These are linked to similar end piers by low coped quadrants. The entrance includes a single large wooden carriage gate, along with matching pedestrian gates on either side.
