Purey Cust Lodge, Grade II listed lodge near York Minster, England.

The lodge features orange-brown brick walls, magnesian limestone details, and diamond lattice windows spread across two low-storey levels.

Built in 1845 as York Minster's stone yard entrance, the structure became Purey-Cust Nursing Home in 1914 through Dean Arthur Purey-Cust's funding.

The entrance gates display decorative shields of St Peter and the York Deanery, reflecting the building's connection to York Minster.

Three gateways pierce the boundary walls, with two containing nail-studded wooden gates and one providing vehicle access to the property.

The boundary walls vary significantly in height, reaching 8.5 meters at the rear while dropping to 4.5 meters along Precentor's Court.
