The east drive of Balquhatstone House was just over 1km long and before 1840 had been a public road. When it was close up it therefore required a lodge near Peatrigend to keep the public at bay. The lodge had a pyramidal roof and a central chimney typical of the first two decades of the 19th century. In front of it was a large semi-circular forecourt enclosed by curving walls with a set of four gate piers in the centre.
