A single storey lodge of painted stone with a two column Greek Doric portico thought to have been built in the 1820's in a similar style to that of the main house. Knolle Park House, originally a grand classic styled house, was later used as St Gabriel's Convent and "Poor Law School", a children's care home. Plans have recently been submitted to convert the house into luxury apartments. The planning application details the restoration and conversion of both the 1828-built Knolle Park House and the Grecian-style lodge.
