Description

Ronachan House is a large Victorian mansion, possibly incorporating earlier work, dating from the mid 19th century. It was enlarged around 1895 by Inglis. The front of the house is made of ashlar, while the other sides are harled. It features gabled slate roofs. The enlargement included a forward extension of one wing, the addition of crow-steps, the gathering of all flues into one chimney, and an annexe at the rear.
