The Fountain And Macnee Fountain, Henderson Shelter, Boer War Memorial, Gatepiers And Structures Including War Memorial, Gate Lodge, Wilton Park

The complex includes a mid-19th century gate lodge, gatepiers, a war memorial, a Boer War memorial, a fountain, a drinking fountain, and a 1930s shelter.

The gate lodge is a picturesque building of single-storey and attic height with an irregular plan. It has deep bracketed eaves and T-braced gables topped with finials. The exterior is roughly squared, snecked rubble stone with yellow sandstone ashlar dressings, including a base course, some long and short quoins, and dimpled rusticated quoins. Window margins are tabbed and polished ashlar with projecting cills. The principal (Avenue) elevation has a simple architrave doorway at the center, a bowed right bay with an attached gatepier that corbelled out to the attic gable, and a tripartite stone-mullioned window on the left with a flat-roofed dormer above. The side (Roadhead) elevation features a tripartite window at ground level and an attic window above, while the rear has irregular fenestration. The gate lodge has non-traditional small-pane timber windows, a grey slate roof with metal ridges, a rendered stack with circular buff clay cans, and cast-iron rainwater goods.

The mid-19th century gatepiers are four square-plan structures with cornices. The inner piers support obelisks atop corner balls, with the northernmost outer pier attached to the bow of the gate lodge. They are constructed of yellow sandstone ashlar with dimpled rusticated quoins.

The 1921 war memorial is a 6.5-metre stone cenotaph with wide steps and a plinth supporting a bronze statue, titled 'Spirit of Youth Triumphing over Evil,' by Alexander Leslie. The memorial is flanked by bronze double lanterns.

The Boer War memorial, designed by J.N. Scott and A. Lorne Campbell, features a statue by William Birnie Rhind. It's a large, distinctive stone memorial with a battered pedestal incorporating banded rustication, surmounted by a standing soldier in battle dress holding a rifle. The square-plan plinth has a concave chamfered base, and the pedestal includes inscription plaques and decorative curvilinear and floral carving.

The 1896 fountain, made by McDowell, Steven & Co, Milton Ironworks, Glasgow, is a silver-painted, two-tiered cast-iron structure set within a three-stepped circular basin. It has a decorative lower pedestal featuring putti, dolphins, and turtle water spouts, a fluted basin above, a smaller pedestal, and a final basin topped with an otter figure holding a fish. A plaque commemorates its bequest to the Burgh by Gilbert Davidson.

The 1906 Macnee drinking fountain is an ornamental grey granite, square-plan memorial. It has a deep plinth with a centrally placed oval column bearing an inscription, surrounded by four smaller corner columns, surmounted by a coping stone with a small dome and finial. A metal drinking bowl and granite water bowl are located on the north side.

The Henderson Shelter is a rectangular-plan, open-frame timber structure with a shallow piended roof, swept eaves, and decorative ridge with scrolled finials. It has tongue and groove boarding on the lower sections, incorporating integral timber benches.
