Gate And Quadrant Walls, West Lodge, Hallyburton Estate

The Gate and Quadrant Walls at West Lodge, Hallyburton Estate, were designed by Andrew Heiton Junior around 1882. This well-detailed, two-storey, two-bay lodge is located at the main entrance to Hallyburton House. It features a Gothic porch, a spired stair tower, and an arched, crowstepped gateway. The building is constructed from stugged red sandstone ashlar, with contrasting long and short ashlar dressings. It has a deep base course and a moulded eaves course, along with quatrefoil openings in the gableheads, relieving arches, and moulded openings with raked cills. The circular tower is corbelled to an octagonal second stage.

The entrance elevation faces west and includes a broad gabled bay with a four-light canted window at the ground level and a tripartite window above, featuring a quatrefoil window in the gablehead. There is a flat-roofed stone porch in the re-entrant angle to the right, which has Gothic-arched openings to the west and north, and a timber door with decorative ironwork. The tower is situated at the southwest angle.

The lodge has some leaded multi-pane toplights and plate glass glazing patterns in the timber sash and case windows. It features a shouldered and coped wallhead stack, grey slates with some fishscale banding on the prominent faces of the tower and the canted window. The ashlar-coped skews have moulded skewputts, and there are cast iron downpipes with decorative rainwater hoppers and fixings.

The interior was not seen in 2010.

The gate and quadrant walls consist of an ashlar gateway flanked by two-stage buttresses, featuring a voussoired and moulded depressed arch with two-leaf ironwork gates beneath broad, coped crowsteps that rise toward the center. The outer quadrant walls are also coped and connect to the adjoining boundary walls.
