Claonairi House, Claonairigh

Claonairi House, located in Claonairigh, is a laird's house that appears to date from the mid 18th century, though the harled exterior hides any dateable stone features that may exist. The house was later used as the factory manager's residence when a nearby mill was constructed by the Duke of Argyll around the 1790s, and it is possible that the shallow advanced piended low flanking wings were added at that time.

The main house is two storeys high, symmetrical, and consists of three bays. A deep-eaved central porch is likely a mid-19th century addition. The rear elevation also features three bays and has end stacks, with a roof covered in small slates. Attic rooms are illuminated by a pair of rooflights at the front, and there is a central rooflight at the rear above the stairs. The windows are mostly 12-pane sash and case, with some lying-pane glazing at the rear, and all openings are unmargined.

Inside, there are some early or original features and ornamentation, including a timber staircase.
