Detached three-bay single-storey gate lodge, built c.1900, with recent full-width flat-roofed extension to rear. Now disused. Hipped slate roof with rendered chimneystack, cast-iron rainwater goods and scalloped timber bargeboards. Painted rendered walls. Square-headed openings with timber casement windows having painted sills, and timber battened door with paned overlight. Set behind wall of entrance to former rectory. Cast-iron pedestrian gate to entrance.
This modestly sized gate lodge happily retains notable features such as roof slates, timber windows and door, which contribute to the textural interest of the building and give it a patina of age. It forms part of a notable group with Fethard Rectory, the walled garden and outbuildings.
