Description

Later 18th century with later additions. 2-storey, 3-bay
house with early 19th century continuous 2-storey, 2-bay
addition at S gable forming 5-bay frontage; further lower
2-storey, wide single bay rear wing fronts Chapel Street.
Harled, contrasting painted ashlar margins.
Centre entrance in original house masked by later timber
gabled porch; secondary entrance in street gable; some
12-pane glazing survives in old house, 2- and 4-pane
elsewhere. End stacks (renewed in old house); flat skews with
run-off skewputts; slate roof with roof lights (probably
replacing earlier thatch).
INTERIOR: interior of old house includes raised and fielded
panelled window shutters and turned balusters to plain
centre staircase.
GARDEN WALLS AND GATEPIERS: front garden enclosed by harled
rubble walls; pedestrian entrance flanked by square
harled piers with pyramidal caps with ball finials.

Statement of Interest

Run-off skewputts in original house cut away on inside edges

to accommodate former thatch, a characteristic found

elsewhere in Banffshire.
