Appraisal
This gate lodge, known as "Lake Lodge", forms part of an interesting group of Loughcrew demesne-related structures, with the Ionic portico, workers' houses, church, stables, graveyard and gate lodges. The building retains many original features and materials such as the slate roofs, timber sash windows and stone dressings.
