Lodge to Bolesworth Castle, 1868, Decorated, probably by Alfred

Ornate castellated entrance contains a pair of wrought iron gates
under an oak-ceiled archway surmounted by armorial bearings.
Lodge-keeper's room (with shoulder-arched doorway flanked by mullioned
windows of 2 lights) links gateway and 2-storey cottage of irregular
form with corbelled corners, parapet and steep hipped roofs with a
shaped dormer gable to inner side and a shaped, brick-topped stone
chimney. A single-storey right wing to the cottage terminates in a
wing-wall with shaped coping, blocked rear-access doorway and quadrant
outer portion with terminal pier, capped with pyramid and ball. The
wing wall left of the gateway is partly thrown down. The main window
of each storey of the cottage, formerly of 3 trefoil lights, is
replaced by a standard metal casement.
