Statement of Interest

The lodge is in a very prominent position on the road from Langton to Duns. It is in a B group with the other surviving buildings, including the principal gate, on the Langton estate. A lodge was standing on this site in 1857. The present lodge is a complete rebuild. The specifications of 1815 do not include plans or elevations and so it is impossible to know if this earlier design was executed on this site, that of North Lodge, or somewhere else.
