About Gate Lodge of the Former Mountain Lodge

Gate Lodge is a small Neo-classical house on Mount Austin Road, built between 1900 and 1902 as one of two gatekeeper's lodges for Mountain Lodge, the governor's summer residence on the Peak. The main house was demolished in 1946, leaving only this lodge, with its rounded corners and three small triangular pediments. It stands in Victoria Peak Garden and is now used as a site office.
