Mains Lodge, Dalmoak House

Mains Lodge, located at Dalmoak House, was built between 1866 and 1869, with a later piend-roofed addition at the rear. This single-storey, rectangular-plan lodge features a castellated Tudor Gothic style, constructed from stugged squared and snecked ashlar with ashlar margins and dressings, along with a rendered addition. The building has a crenellated, billeted parapet that rises into round-headed panels at intervals, and includes hoodmoulds and labelstops.

On the south elevation, the original three-bay block is complemented by the later addition to the left. The main lodge has two windows symmetrically arranged to the right, with a raised parapet over the central window that displays a monogram. To the left, there is a canted bay in a slightly advanced position, featuring curved corners.

The east elevation facing the road has a plaque depicting a Greek cross and shield at the center, along with a hoodmould. A corbelled stack breaks the blocking course above.

The lodge features uPVC top-hopper windows, a slate roof with lead flashings, and tall ridge and wallhead stacks that have rounded corners and crenellated coping.

The interior was not seen in 1995.

The entrance includes gates framed by pedestrian gates, with a circular pier topped with corbelled crenellated caps and a ring band, along with squat square-plan terminating piers. The gates are finialled cast-iron with gilded tips. The boundary wall is made of squared and snecked, stepped rubble with harl/cement pointing and ashlar gablet coping.
