Markree Castle, West Gate Lodge, Co. Sligo

            This impressive castellated Gothic entrance to Markree Demesne was built to designs by the London architect Francis Goodwin. The building retains much of its original form and fabric and is particularly notable for its fine ashlar stonework and wrought-iron gates. Now in private ownership.

Detached three-bay stone gate lodge, built ca. 1835. Central two-storey tower with integral carriage arch flanked by single-storey wings. Coursed tooled ashlar limestone walling, battered plinths, slightly-projecting castellated parapets. Pointed-arched window openings, square-headed openings to tower, hood moulds, chamfered reveals flush sills, three-pane fixed lights. Depressed pointed-arched carriage openings to east and west sides of central tower, double splayed reveals with stop-chamfer at plinth, brick barrel vault, decorative wrought-iron gates with cast-iron embellishments. Square-headed door openings to north and south sides of archway, splayed ashlar reveals, painted vertically-sheeted timber doors. The Main gate lodge is to north side of Markree Demesne.
