Description
The building on Granary Street in Huntly is a two-storey, seven-bay structure dating from the late 18th century, with alterations made in the late 19th century and later. It was possibly constructed as a granary. The exterior is made of grey granite rubble with red sandstone dressings and quoins, topped with a pitched slated roof that features unobtrusive skylights from the late 19th century on the north slope. The skews are made of ashlar.
The building has regular openings typical of the late 18th century, with chamfered arrises. Some of these openings have been altered, and several have been blocked with rubble or brick infill.
On the north elevation, which faces Richmond Lane, there are larger rectangular windows with 12-pane sash and case windows at the ground level. The first floor has square openings, some with 9-pane sash and case windows, while others are blocked, positioned close to the eaves. An arched entrance is located at the second bay from the left. Adjacent to the centre bay is a large garage door that is off-centre, with a blocked hoist door on the first floor above.
The south elevation features regular openings and includes a rubble-built lean-to porch from the late 19th century that masks the central ground floor bays.
The gables are single bay, with a blocked arched doorway leading to Granary Street.
Inside, the building was gutted around 1950, with the first floor and partitions removed. A lathe and plaster platformed ceiling from the late 19th century was noted during a 1992 inspection.
