Description
Lowland Manse in Campbeltown is an early 19th century house with later additions and alterations. It is a 2-storey and attic building with a 3-bay main section and a lower single-bay, single-storey and attic addition to the east, along with a further lean-to addition, creating a 5-bay frontage. The exterior features stugged, squared, and snecked rubble walls with droved ashlar dressings, and coursed rubble side and rear elevations. There is a base course and eaves course on both the main block and the additions, with raised margins and projecting cills on the openings.
On the south (principal) front, there is a pilastered doorpiece with an entablature, blocking course, and a tablet above. The left bay has tripartite windows with narrow sidelights on both the ground and first floors. To the right, there is a stone gabled dormer that breaks the eaves. The lean-to addition on the outer right features a wide modern opening at the ground floor.
The east elevation has a blank gable end for the east wing, with a lean-to addition at ground level that includes a single window at the center. The north (rear) elevation shows a 4-bay layout with a large stair window in the first floor's inner right bay, and a door below it, offset to the right, with a slit window to the left. There is a bipartite window in the ground floor bay to the outer right and a slit window at the first floor to the left of the stair window. The east wing has a bipartite window at ground level with a door to the left, and a dormer that matches the one on the south front above. The lean-to addition at the outer left has a single window in its gable.
The south front features 10-pane timber sash and case windows, with 5-pane sidelights on the tripartite windows. The rear elevation has modern glazing and doors, except for the wing and lean-to, the stair window, bipartites, and slit window. The main entrance has a 4-panel timber door (originally two-leaf) with a glazed timber screen inside. The roof is covered in grey slate, with a modern gabled timber dormer and rooflights on the south pitch. It has cast-iron gutters and downpipes, with 4-flue coped ashlar apex stacks at the west gable and a 2-flue stack at the wing gable. The skew copes and the east gable stack have been removed.
Inside, there is a stone stair with a cast-iron balustrade and a timber handrail.
