U-plan, with court to E. Gable end walls to N and
S, cottages at W, slightly advanced from linking cottage
at centre, and with stone bracketted canopies, arrow-slits
at apex and ball and obelisk finials. 2 later flat-roofed
extensions to E gabled ends of N and S cottages,

Statement of Interest

Sited to W of Biel Mill itself, formerly for mill workers.

Design is similar to that used in Tyninghame and Dirleton

Village in the same period, and at the mill cottage and the

West Lodge to Biel House.
