Whitehouse Lodge, Lamlash, Arran

Whitehouse Lodge in Lamlash, Arran, is a single storey and attic lodge, possibly designed by George Paterson in the late 19th century. It has a rectangular plan and is constructed of coursed bull-faced red rubble sandstone with ashlar dressings. The roof is piended and gabled, covered with slate and features crenellated terracotta ridge tiles. The building includes a base course and an eaves course, with windows that have thickly moulded timber frames and deep lintels, some adorned with scrolled pediments. The deep boarded eaves and coped, harled ridge stacks add to its character.

The front elevation features a panelled door set within an ashlar doorcase and scroll pediment, located in a slightly recessed bay on the left. To the right, there is a projecting window and a cross window above it, which also has a decorative pediment. A curtain wall is recessed to the right, concealing a yard.

On the left return elevation, there is a central window flanked by narrow ventilator-slit windows, each topped with a scrolled pediment, and a dormer above. The rear elevation includes a central cross window, a door to the left, and a canted former with outbuildings and a stack to the far left.

The interior, as seen in 2012, retains its original room layout, featuring a straight stair, some simple cornicing, and some timber boarding.
