Description
The Gate Lodge at Boleskine House is an earlier 19th century single-storey building with three bays, facing northwest. It is constructed from coursed mixed rubble, featuring contrasting painted tooled margins. The central door is set in a shallow canted recess and is flanked by narrow sidelights and casement windows. Above the door, there is a projecting three-sided shallow piended canopy supported by four slender painted cast-iron columns. Each return gable has a single casement window, also in a shallow canted recess, and there is a small window at the center of the rear. All windows, including the casements and sashes, have horizontal glazing and tooled ashlar sandstone angles. The building has a stumpy off-centre stack and a shallow piended slate roof with projecting eaves.
The gate piers and gates date from the early to mid-19th century and consist of a pair of decorative lattice work cast-iron square gate piers topped with shallow pyramidal caps. There is a matching pair of cast-iron carriage gates featuring decorative spearhead detailing, along with flanking spearhead railings on a low coped retaining wall.
