Description
The Gate Lodge at Drummuir Castle, possibly designed by Alexander Reid in 1897, is an asymmetrical single-storey castellated structure featuring a two-stage tower. It is situated on an island site surrounded by a road and two arms of the entrance drive. The building is constructed of rubble with tooled ashlar dressings. The entrance is located on the north elevation, which overlooks one arm of the driveway. At the northeast angle, there is a two-stage octagonal tower with a corbelled and crenellated wallhead. The west front has two bays and includes a projecting canted window, along with a modern single-storey, single-bay addition at the southwest. The windows feature two- and four-pane glazing, and the wallheads are crenellated and corbelled with cable moulding. The roof is piended and covered with slate. The lodge is enclosed by low coped rubble walls and cast-iron spearhead railings.
At one arm of the drive, there are paired gatepiers with flanking pedestrian piers, made of ashlar and topped with substantial pyramidal caps. There are no gates present.
