Description

The Lodge at Cameron House, likely designed by John Burnett and dated 1882, is a single-storey and attic Baronial lodge. It is constructed from squared and snecked sandstone, featuring polished sandstone ashlar and dressings. The building showcases crowstepped gables, broken pedimented dormerheads, and ashlar mullions and transoms, with advanced eaves.

On the avenue elevation, there are three bays. The outer left features a dormerhead window with a pediment. To the right, there is a round-headed door with roll-moulded arrises and a rope-moulded hoodmould, topped by a crowstepped gable that breaks over it. A plaque with the PBS monogram is located at the center above a six-panelled door with a semicircular fanlight. The outer right has a bowed window that is advanced, while the center displays a transomed and mullioned window flanked by single windows. An ashlar parapet is raised to a crowstepped pediment at the center, which includes an armorial plaque.

The road elevation features a narrow prow-shaped bay that is advanced to the outer right, with two dormerheaded, pedimented windows. To the left, there is a dormerheaded window at the center beneath a crowstepped gable, and a tall shouldered stack is located in the valley to the right.

The windows are plate glass timber sash and case. The roof is covered with grey slate and red terracotta ridging, featuring tall wallhead and apex stacks with ashlar corniced cans. The property also includes gatepiers and a wall.
