II

Gate-house with attached coach-house and stables to private
estate, now park-keeper's lodge and public toilets. 1841.
Coursed squared red sandstone, slate roofs. Tudor style. Two
ranges at right-angles, with a linking archway.
EXTERIOR: the gate-house, parallel to the road, has a very
large porch with side buttresses, a stepped gable, a large
Tudor-arched coach entrance (now blocked internally) with
chamfered surround, 2 small shields above the arch and a
lancet-shaped niche in the gable. The rear of the main range
has a similar but lower arch flanked by 2-light windows with
chamfered flush mullions; gable copings with kneelers, and a
large skylight in the roof (lacking glazing at time of
inspection). Continued from the north-west corner of this (and
linking with the south-east corner of the former coach-house
and stable range) is a short full-height screen wall with a
very large Tudor-arched opening.
The coach-house and stable range, 2 low storeys and 3 windows,
has a Tudor-arched coach entrance in the centre (now blocked),
a square-headed doorway and a 2-light mullioned window each
side at ground floor, and 3 smaller 2-light windows under the
eaves, all these windows with chamfered flush mullions. Gable
copings with kneelers; ridge chimney.
INTERIOR: not inspected.
