Description

East Adamston is an earlier 19th-century farmhouse built on a U-plan with three bays, designed in a classical style. The farmhouse is constructed from pink and buff rubble with ashlar dressings, and has a piended slate roof. The windows are margined (with painted cement rendering on the south elevation), and mostly contain 4-pane and 12-pane sash and case frames. Deep eaves and prominent, shouldered and corniced end and wallhead stacks are notable features.

The south elevation includes a door within a plain margined doorcase, featuring a fanlight and a block pediment in the advanced central bay. There is a 12-pane window above the door, and ground floor windows to the left and right with plain block canopy detail, alongside 12-pane windows at the first floor level. The west elevation has a ground floor window on the main house, and a ground floor and two first-floor windows on the service wing to the right. The east elevation is blank on the main house, with a single-storey projecting section to the left containing a bipartite window. The north elevation features a door in a single-storey link at the centre, a stair window on the main house, and a two-storey service wing projecting left, with a ground floor and two first-floor windows on the return. A single-storey wing is situated to the right.

The interior features a decorative cast-iron balustrade to the main stair, along with some early fireplaces, shutters, and fielded-panel doors.

East Adamston was historically owned by the Duncans of Lundie, later of Camperdown, during the 18th and 19th centuries. A lintel inscribed 'DY 1757' has been re-set into the east elevation of an adjacent steading. The site includes boundary walls.
