Description
Biggar Park Lodge is an early 19th-century gate lodge with a later 20th-century addition. It is a single-storey, square-plan building featuring classical proportions and six bays that turn around a canted corner. The structure is built of random rubble with sandstone ashlar dressings and has a stepped band course at the eaves. It includes long and short quoins and window margins, while the later extension is rendered.
The lodge has a boarded timber door and timber sash and case windows with 12-pane glazing. The roof is covered with graduated piended and pitched grey slate, and the northern gable has an ashlar-coped skew. The ashlar ridge stacks feature a circular cornice and plain clay cans.
The gates and gatepiers consist of a pyramidal-capped gatepier set in a random rubble wall with a canted corner. Additionally, there are spear-headed cast iron gatepiers and railings.
