Details Lodge, still in use, built in circa 1850, probably by John Smith, altered in circa 1910 and set within the Pitfour House designed landscape (NJ94NE0039). It is a two-storey, three-bay lodge that was possibly a pair of cottages with a centre dividing wall in its original form. It is constructed from granite ashlar on the principal (south and east) elevations, and harled to the north and west. The shallow piended slate roof has red clay ridge tiles from circa 1910 and overhanging timber bracketted eaves. There are single-light windows to the outer bays of the south (road) elevation flanking centre bipartites. An entrance in a piend roofed rear porch was probably an addition, and there is a tall wallhead stack that is central over the rear wall.
