Description

Detached three-bay single-storey gate lodge, built c.1820, with central breakfront. Now in ruins. Rendered walls. Square-headed openings set in recessed blind arches. Rubble stone boundary walls to site with ashlar dressings to gate.

Appraisal

Though now in ruins, this gate lodge retains architectural form and design. The recessed blind arches and central breakfront are interesting architectural features of this modest building. This gate lodge forms part of a group of demesne structures with Dunsany Castle, stables, outbuildings, church and other gate lodges.
