Lodge, Pitkellony House

This is a well-detailed gate lodge and gatehouse, likely designed around 1850, possibly by George Penrose Kennedy, and with an extension added circa 1880, potentially by George Turnbull Ewing. It stands at the principal eastern entrance to Pitkellony House, at the edge of Muthill village.

The main lodge is a single-story house with an attic, featuring a three-bay gabled design. It has pedimented window heads that break the eaves, a pedimented porch, and paired, diamond-aligned chimney stacks. A lower, rectangular, gabled extension projects to the west. A lower, swept-roof section, now a separate dwelling, is located at the rear. The exterior is constructed of snecked rubble with raised ashlar margins and droved dressings, and harl with painted margins. Chamfered arrises highlight deep-set windows.

The symmetrical northern elevation features a projecting stone porch with a panelled timber door, a 7-pane fanlight, and a dentilled pediment above the door. Small, two-part windows are located in the flanking bays, above which are single, stone dormerheaded windows. A further gabled bay projects at the outer right, also with a single window.

The windows are timber sash and case with 4-, 12-pane glazing and plate glass. The roof is covered with graded grey slates, with a small cast iron rooflight. Chimneys are constructed of coped ashlar and snecked rubble, topped with a full complement of cans, most of which are polygonal. Overhanging eaves display exposed rafters and plain bargeboarding.

The interior retains some original features, including moulded plasterwork cornicing and timber shutters.

A single-story, rectangular-plan dairy with a piended roof is located nearby, built of snecked rubble with large quoins and a slated roof. It has a gabled door with plain bargeboard and evidence of a three-pane glazing pattern over shuttered openings. The interior preserves stone benches and evidence of lime-washed walls.

To the southwest of the dairy stands a long, single-story building, which incorporates a hayloft and dovecot. This rectangular-plan building is constructed of slated rubble with timber doors. The northeast elevation has a timber gablehead incorporating a dovecot with a single flight hole and a small, single-story, piended projection to the left at ground level.

The entrance is marked by monumental ashlar drum gatepiers with stepped cornices and ball finials, and two-leaf decorative ironwork gates. Snecked rubble boundary walls define the property.
