Description

Wrae is a building dating from around 1840. It is two stories high and has three windows. The structure is made of red rubble with ashlar dressings and features coped chimneys. The northwest gable has an interesting small canted bay that overlooks the farm court. This area previously contained a business desk with small drawers, which is said to have been used for paying wages. There is also a single-storey back wing and a range of offices.
