Building record MAB3881 - NORTH GATE LODGE, LOGIE HOUSE

North gate lodge for Logie Estate, dated 1925, and gatepiers, sitting circa 900 metres to the North-East of Logie House (NJ05SW0002).

North gate lodge for Logie Estate, dated 1925, and gatepiers, sitting circa 900 metres to the North-East of Logie House (NJ05SW0002). It is a Scottish Renaissance gate lodge, that is single-storey over a raised basement (the basement is at the South only) of irregular plan and with gabled elevations. It is constructed from harl pointed rubble, bullfaced rubble and tooled ashlar dressings. There are 2-bay elevations to the North and West, which is facing curved driveway. The entrance is in the West re-entrant angle. There is tripartite fenestration in the North and East elevations, and multi-pane glazing is used. A small square bartizan turret rises from the wallhead at the North, with a bellcast pyramidal roof, a thistle motif to the base of a wrought-iron finial. There are coped wallhead stacks, crowstepped gables and a slate roof. There are enlarged windows with modern glazing to the raised basement at the South. The gatepiers, at the West of the lodge, probably also date from 1925. They are a pair of square ashlar gatepiers with crenellated caps, and supporting a pair of cast-iron gates, replacing an earlier single wooden carriage gate. A low crenellated rubble wall, at places covered with vegetation, joins the gatepiers to the West and curves around the North of the Lodge to the East. The low wall matches those that surround the triangular island in the road to the North, and continues North from the Western side of the gatepiers.

Period Notes
The lodge, and probably gatepiers, were built in 1925. The windows to the South have been enlarged, and modern glazing installed. It was listed on 09/11/1987.
