Description
Lunga House is likely a 17th century building with a 19th century extension, designed in a Scottish style. The main structure has an L-plan layout and consists of two storeys and an attic. It is built from rubble and partially harled, featuring a gabled slate roof with crow-stepped gables. The interior has been largely remodelled. The southwest extension includes a three-storey-and-attic 'keep' with crenellation and angle turrets topped with semi-conical roofs.
