A Maitland and Sons (Tain) 1896-7. Assymetrical picturesquely
composed 2-storey shooting lodge, with Scottish Baronial
detailing and applied timber decoration in gables. Dark
bullfaced rubble, contrasting ashlar sandstone dressings.
4-storey corbelled and crenellated tower with attached turret
(both with shaped merlons), turret occupied with stair at
upper levels; 4-centred arched, hoodmoulded entrance at
ground floor and 1897 datestone above. 2-storey multi-gabled
ranges linked to tower, reducing in size at service areas.
To east of tower, wide bay with 2-storey canted bay off-
centre under wide gable, linked by balcony to tower. To SW
2 angled bays, one canted and corbelled over ground floor
with gable, the other canted with piended roof; additional
west facing bay with large stack rising through it.
Lower service range to NW.
Windows mostly mullioned except in service wing; corniced
stacks; slate roof.
Interior; stair to 1st floor in panelled hall; other
contemporary details survive including panelled library
and bookcases.
W L Carruthers (architect, Inverness) advertised for tenders
in 1889. It is possible that either his design was overseen
by A Maitland in 1896 or more likely that details of his plans
were incorporated in those of A Maitland.
