Description

Culloden is a farmhouse, likely dating from the mid-17th century, with alterations and additions from the late 17th and early 18th centuries. The house is constructed of rendered stone rubble with a steeply pitched rag slate roof featuring gable ends. Brick and stone rubble stacks are visible, one on the left-hand gable, another on the right-hand gable, and a third serving the kitchen wing to the rear of the left-hand room. A cloam oven is incorporated into the rear wing's gable end stack. A dogleg staircase projection was added in the early 18th century to the rear, centrally positioned. A C18 outshot extension sits on the left-hand gable end and to the left side of the rear wing, characterised by thick external walls. A service outshot dating to the early 19th century is attached to the gable end of the rear wing.

The original plan appears to have been a two-room layout with a possible through passage, originally heated by end stacks. The kitchen wing was likely added in the late 17th century, also heated by a gable end stack.

The front of the house presents a nearly symmetrical appearance with three windows. The central entrance has a six-panel door, the top panel glazed, and a gabled hood supported by brackets. There are two late 19th-century 16-pane horned sash windows flanking the entrance. Above, two smaller early 19th-century 16-pane hornless sash windows and a central round-headed empty niche are found.

Inside, the central entrance passage features late 18th or early 19th-century plank and muntin screens and remains of reset C18 scratch-moulded panelling towards the rear on the left. One room has a remodelled early 18th-century glazed door with thick glazing bars and a moulded frame; the door may be a reused cupboard door. A recessed area is located to the rear of the right-hand room. The rear wing includes a moulded C18 mantleshelf and a cloam oven. The early 18th-century dogleg staircase has vase-shaped balusters and a deep, unmoulded rail. One first-floor room features a bolection moulded chimney-piece with a mid-19th-century grate. The roof structure is dated to the early 18th century, with principals partly halved, lapped, and pegged at the apices.
