II

Pair of lodges, with associated gateways and screen walls. Probably 1777 by
Robert Adam. Sandstone ashlar and wrought iron. Each lodge is a single cell
of square plan and one storey, in classical style, with rusticated quoins, an
impost band carried round the whole, a round-headed recessed arch (facing the
road) containing a round-headed sashed window with radiating glazing bars in
the head; and a low pyramidal roof with a central chimney; plain doorway in
the side wall to the drive; and rear similar to front. Between the lodges, 2
square gatepiers of massive finely-dressed blocks, each with a floral
medallion in an otherwise plain frieze, and a shallow swept cap (formerly
surmounted by a winged sphinx). Double main gates and single side gates, all
of simple spear-railing design with dog bars below and S-shaped passing
braces above. Concave curved screen walls attached to the outer corners of
the lodges.
