Description
This building, originally from the early 19th century and later reworked in the 19th century, is a tall single-storey and attic structure with an L-plan, formerly known as Bridgealehouse. It features stone-pedimented window heads and is harled with granite ashlar dressings on the east and north dormer windows.
The east elevation is symmetrical, with a central porch that has a panelled timber door. Flanking the porch are canted windows, leading to dormer windows that break the eaves, which are topped with bolection finials. The north elevation has a gabled bay to the left with two ground floor windows and a blocked small window above, while the right bay has a single window and a dormer window similar to those on the east elevation. The south elevation features a recessed bay to the left of centre with a part-glazed timber door and a three-pane fanlight, alongside a small window to the left and an advanced blank gabled bay to the right, which has a low lean-to timber addition in the re-entrant angle to the left. The west elevation is a blank gabled wall.
The windows throughout the building are timber sash and case with a 4-pane glazing pattern. The roof is covered with grey slates, and the stacks are made of coped squared rubble and harled materials, featuring thackstanes and some cans. The skews are ashlar-coped.
Inside, the building has decorative plasterwork cornices, a timber staircase, and a fireplace in the ground floor lounge that includes a cast-iron grate and tiled slips depicting pheasants in green and cream colours.
The steading is gabled and has an H-plan layout, with the east end infilled by a later M-gabled range. It is constructed of slated rubble with some Aberdeen bond stonework, ashlar-coped skews, and boarded timber doors.
There is also an ancillary building and a summer house on the property. The ancillary building is a mono-pitch structure made of slated rubble with a boarded timber door on the west side of the house. The summer house, built around 1900, is rectangular in plan and features canted corner windows on the east side.
The boundary walls are made of coursed rubble, with some sections flat-coped and others rubble-coped.
