Entrance lodge to Tehidy Park. Probably 1790's, for Francis Basset Lord de
Dunstanville. Coursed killas rubble with granite quoins and dressings, thatched
roof. Octagonal plan with prominent porch. One and 1½ storeys, in Picturesque
style, with a very prominent 1½-storey porch which has a triangular arched outer
doorway with imposts, and a wider gable carried on 3 tiers of moulded corbels
and containing a small casement window of 2 arched lights with an emphatic
hoodmould, and a steeply-pitched roof projected from the main roof, with
prominent boarded verges under deep thatch. The inner doorway has a hoodmould,
the canted side walls have 2-light casements with similar hoodmoulds, and the
low thatched roof forms a deep canopy carried round, with a chimney at its
apex. Rear and interior not inspected. The gate piers forming a carriage gateway
and side gate at the entrance to the drive are granite ashlar monoliths of square
