Flat roof to porch behind parapet. Painted rendered, ruled and lined walls with rendered piers and corner piers, band to eaves, and cut-stone cornice to porch with blocking course over. Round-headed window openings (paired to side (north) elevation) with stone sills, and moulded rendered surrounds (no surround to porch). Timber casement windows.

Appraisal

An appealing, small-scale gate lodge of balanced proportions, which retains its original form and much of its original fabric, and which contributes to the historic character of the locality.
