Description
The building is a steading located at Auldtown of Netherdale, dating from around 1845. It is a long, 10-bay structure oriented northwest to southeast, and it may have been extended at a later date. The steading features an off-centre two-stage entrance tower that includes a pend, loft, and dovecot. The walls are made of roughly squared, coursed rubble with stugged ashlar dressings.
The tower has a broad segmental-arched pend leading to the cattle courts, with a Venetian window above it. There is a recessed panel at the gable head that includes flight holes, and an apex stack. Small windows are positioned close to the eaves on the flanking ranges, and some doorways have been blocked.
The windows are sash and case style, with glazed upper sashes and slatted lower sashes. The roof is covered with grey slates, and it features coped ashlar skews and stacks.
