Description

The stables at Panmure Estate, designed by David Bryce around 1852, feature a Scots Jacobean style and consist of an asymmetrical stables and service complex arranged in a U-plan. This includes a single-storey block to the northwest linked to a two-storey courtyard to the southeast. The building is mainly constructed of squared snecked rubble with some ashlar detailing and has raised margins around the openings. It is characterized by predominantly crowstepped gables and features a mix of pedimented and segmental dormer-headed windows on the first floor of the courtyard block.

On the northeast elevation of the U-plan block, there is a large shouldered pend opening at the center, flanked by arrow-slit openings. Above this, a string course runs along with a corniced crenellated parapet that has segmental pediments above the merlons. To the far right, there is a corbelled-out panelled and corniced wall-end stack. The northeast corner features a small projecting two-storey octagonal tower with a string course separating the ground and first floors, louvred openings on the first floor, an eaves cornice, and a fish-scale slated ogee roof topped with a ball and spike finial. The southeast wing has a crow-stepped, M-gabled elevation.

In the courtyard block, the center of the northeast elevation has a pend opening leading into the courtyard, while the southwest elevation features an advanced M-gabled section at the center.

The glazing throughout the building consists predominantly of 8 or 12 pane timber sash and case windows. The roofs are pitched and covered with grey slates, and there are several corniced wall-head and gable-head stacks, along with some cast-iron rainwater goods and hoppers.

Inside, there is a large room that features a massive classical pilastered stone chimneypiece and a timber hammerbeam roof supported by stone corbels. The remainder of the interior has not been seen.
