Description

The Warren at Glamis Castle is a single-storey and attic estate house built in the mid to later 19th century, featuring an 18th century wing. The structure is made of dressed, squared, and coursed rubble with ashlar dressings and harl with painted margins. It has a droved, chamfered base course, corbel, bracketed dripstone canopies, moulded, stop-chamfered arrises, and stone mullions.

The principal elevation is symmetrical, with an open porch in the centre bay that has a boarded, decorative timber gablehead and a timber door with a letterbox fanlight. There are bipartite windows with dripstones in the flanking bays, and an attic window above that breaks the eaves into decorative dormer gableheads.

On the southwest elevation, there is a gabled bay to the outer right featuring a corbelled chimney breast in the gablehead, and a slightly recessed narrow bay with a small window to the left. To the left, there is a lower, three-bay, single-storey wing that has a bipartite window in the centre, a door to the left, and another window to the right, with slightly taller outbuildings adjoining to the outer left.

The northeast elevation includes a gabled bay to the left with a bipartite window below a corbelled chimney breast. To the right is a lower, three-bay single-storey wing with a bipartite window in the centre, a window to the left, and a modern window to the right, along with outbuildings adjoining to the outer right.

The windows are timber sash and case with 4-pane and plate glass glazing patterns. The roof is covered with grey slate and Angus stone slate. The chimney stacks are cavetto-coped, stop-chamfered, shouldered ashlar stacks, and a coped rubble stack, all fitted with cans. The bargeboarding is plain, with deeply overhanging eaves and fretwork gableheads.

Additionally, there is an ancillary structure, which is a whitewashed rubble T-plan outbuilding with an Angus stone slate roof on the piended T-projection.
