East Range, Steading, Coldstone Manse

The East Range of the steading, the walled garden, and Coldstone Manse itself date primarily from 1783, with a porch added in 1826. Originally Kirklands of Coldstone, the manse is a two-storey, three-bay, partial double-pile, M-gabled former manse. It is constructed of harled granite with a regular fenestration pattern.

The south elevation, which is the principal facade, features a three-bay design with regularly spaced windows. A shouldered, gabled porch is centrally located, featuring a timber-panelled door and a letterbox fanlight above. Canted roof dormers with piended roofs are present in the attic space. The north elevation displays an advanced gabled bay to the centre left, with a cheese press built into the wall, flush with the west elevation. To the right is a return of the M-gable. The east side elevation has a two-bay gable and a single-storey timber lean-to outhouse. The west side elevation is a four-bay M-gable. All windows are 4-pane sash and case. The roof is covered in grey slates with lead flashing, and features scrolled skewputts, coped skews, and gable stacks. The interior was not inspected in 2002.

The steading is a single-storey, seven-bay, E-plan gabled structure, characterised by predominantly regular fenestration, including numerous cart openings, with squared granite courses, grey slates, lead flashing, and coped skews. A semicircular walled garden is located to the rear of the steading and is enclosed by a coped rubble wall.

The architectural style is typical of late 18th-century improvement era houses—regular, neat, and symmetrical—reflecting a preference for classical order and balance. The inclusion of a cheese press within the rear wall and the unusual walled garden and steading are particularly noteworthy features.
