West Gate-Lodge, Vogrie House

West Gate-Lodge, part of the Vogrie House estate, was constructed in 1896. It is a single-story, three-bay cottage built in an ornate style, with a later porch addition to the rear. The lodge is constructed of droved sandstone ashlar with polished dressings. Features include chamfered reveals, overhanging eaves, pierced bargeboards to the gables, kingpost details to the gableheads, and chamfered reveals.

The north (entrance) elevation has three bays, a base course, and droved coursed sandstone. A gabled porch is advanced to the centre bay, featuring pierced bargeboards. The porch contains a panelled timber door with a letterbox fanlight. A stepped hoodmould, incorporating a hand bearing a sword (an emblem of the Dewar family of Vogrie), is positioned centrally above the door. A small window is set into the left return of the porch, while a canted window with a slate roof is present in the gabled bay to the outer right. A small window is also located on the outer left.

The west elevation is symmetrical, built of tooled squared and snecked sandstone with droved dressings, including long and short quoins. A central gable displays a stone shield bearing the date "1896." Two symmetrically placed windows are situated below the gable.

The south elevation is M-gabled, constructed of tooled squared and snecked sandstone with droved dressings. A 20th-century harled porch addition is located off-centre to the right, complete with a glazed timber door and three-pane windows to its returns. A 24-pane sash and case window is centred in the gable to the right. A small three-pane window sits off-centre to the right of the left gable. Beneath this is a 20th-century harled coal bunker, alongside a wooden addition extending to the outer left.

The east elevation consists of two bays built of tooled squared and snecked sandstone with droved dressings. It features a tripartite window with a hoodmould in the gabled bay to the right, and a fixed window with a top hopper in the bay to the left.

The windows are a combination of single-pane and fixed windows with top hoppers. The roof is purple-grey slate with lead ridges, incorporating cast iron rainwater goods and two coped ridge stacks. The interior was not inspected in 1997.

Polished sandstone gatepiers feature stop-chamfered angles, fluted friezes, and corniced caps, although finials are missing. The property is bounded by tooled squared and snecked coped sandstone boundary walls, decorative wrought iron railings, and gates.

The lodge is similar in design to the North Lodge (listed separately), but its plan is reversed. Historical records and Ordnance Survey maps indicate a building has been on this site since at least 1852, although the present lodge dates to 1896.
