Limecraigs House, Hutcheon Road, Campbeltown

Limecraigs House is an early 18th-century country house located on Hutcheon Road, Campbeltown. The original building consisted of a two-storey and attic, five-bay classical main block, now extended to the west. The original layout approximated a cruciform plan, with an advanced and gabled bay centrally positioned at both the front and rear elevations. Further extensions include a two-storey addition to the west, pavilions flanking an entrance courtyard to the east and west, with courtyards on their outer elevations, and a single-storey stables cottage forming an L-shape to the east of the main house. The walls are harled with droved ashlar chamfered margins.

The north elevation of the main house displays a symmetrical five-bay arrangement on the left-hand side, with the advanced and gabled centre bay containing a corniced ashlar entrance porch with stone steps leading to a six-panel, two-leaf timber entrance door and a six-pane fanlight above. A three-bay extension is visible to the right (west), with a modern staircase providing access to an entrance door located centrally on the first floor, accompanied by a slit window to the left. The south elevation showcases a symmetrical five-bay arrangement, including the advanced and chimney-gabled centre bay with a window in the gablehead and a ground-floor door in the bay to the outer left. A three-bay addition slightly projects to the left, with a single window centred on the first floor above the bays to the right.

The pavilions, now functioning as a Gamekeeper's Cottage and Kennel's Cottage, are single-storey and attic structures with harled exteriors. The west-facing wall is modernised with gabled dormers breaking the eaves. Kennel enclosures border the courtyard to the west, alongside a modern addition to the south (Tigh Beag Geal). A roofless rubble single-storey range, formerly a laundry with a lean-to at the north elevation, runs along the east side of the courtyard. A harled single-storey L-plan steading adjoins the east side.

The stables cottage is a harled, L-plan, single-storey building, originally serving as a rent office, with modern openings.

The house features timber sash and case windows; the main house has mainly plate glass, while the left bays of the west pavilion and the west elevation exhibit lying-pane and four-pane windows. The roofs are grey slate with overhanging timber eaves and piended ends to the original house, gabled ends to the west addition, piended pavilions, steading and stables cottage. Piend-roofed slate-hung timber dormers are present on the original house. Chimneys have harled and coped stacks with circular cans.

Inside, a later 19th-century timber staircase with turned spindles is located at the centre of the original house, and some fielded-panel timber doors remain.

Boundary walls constructed of random rubble define the estate, with a large drum gatepier featuring pyramidal caps located at the northeast corner of the steading. A random rubble wall also borders the north side of the Kennels courtyard.
