Description
Home Farm at Keith Hall, attributed to John Smith, was built between 1806 and 1812. It features a large quadrangular plan with a single storey and attic, as well as a two-storey steading that has seen later additions. The front elevation is constructed of ashlar granite, while the other sides use coursed squared blocks and rubble. The building has a piended roof covered with slates arranged in diminishing courses, with a coped ashlar wallhead and ridge stacks. The domestic areas have single 6-pane windows.
The front elevation consists of 11 bays, with five segmental arch openings in the center. The central arch remains open, while the flanking arches have been infilled to create doors and windows. There is a door and two windows on either side, and 11 windows on the first floor.
On the west elevation, there are various outshots to the left, a door with an astragalled transom light, and several windows to the right, along with three wallhead stacks.
The east elevation features a forestair leading to a door on the left, various openings to the right, a wallhead stack, and dormer-headed openings.
The courtyard is partly infilled from the north and includes a segmental arch pend at the south range, along with six prominent shouldered wallhead stacks.
