Description
Drumblair House is an 18th-century building of plain vernacular design, originally constructed as a 2-storey, F-plan house. A later, simpler, 3-storey tower with battlemented detailing was added, rising one window above the main front, incorporating a staircase and porch. Slim, circular angle towers top the building, each finished with a spired, slated roof. A rear wing was reconstructed in 1877, date noted on the building. The interior largely dates to 1877 and contains no significant features.
