The Dalmonach Turkey-red dye works was founded towards the end of the 18th century and continued in production until approximately the 1960s. At the height of production the works employed between 4000 and 5000 people. Most of the buildings have been demolished and those still standing have been consderably altered. The lodge is listed for its historic interest as one of the few remaining unlatered buildings. It was the E entrance to the site. The former school to the works is listed separately.
