Description
Mill of Boyndie Farmhouse is a main house dated 1809, which fronts an 18th century single storey range that now forms the rear wing. The farmhouse faces south and is a two-storey building with a dormerless attic and three bays. It features rubble construction with tooled and polished ashlar dressings. The central entrance has a corniced and moulded doorpiece, a double-leaf panelled door, and decorative glazing in the rectangular fanlight. There are single windows on the ground and first floors in the west gable, along with a small attic light, all with 12-pane glazing. The house has tall coped end stacks and a local slate roof with flat skews that have run-off skewputts moulded on the underside, dated at the west side.
At the rear, there are single storey ranges, with the main wing featuring a substantial 18th century stack. Inside, there is a small entrance stair hall with a round-headed mural recess that was originally intended for a grandfather clock. The curved staircase has a simple curved wooden balustrade. The former first floor parlour, located to the west, includes a leaf pattern plaster cornice and a marbled chimneypiece, likely made of slate.
