The lodge is a small early 19th century limestone structure in Elizabethan style. There is a lean-to extension to the rear, but the building has been little altered and retains its original plan. The internal doors are 19th century, many retaining their original door furniture, and the staircase is of typical 19th century type. The only feature of architectural interest is a triangular-headed recess in the front room.
