Buittle Place

Buittle Place is a 16th century L-plan tower house featuring a rectangular main block with a narrow projecting jamb to the northeast. It was described as 'ruinous' in 1789. The building underwent heavy restoration and was harled in the early 20th century, with the upper courses rebuilt and a modern roof added. The construction is of rough rubble, with walls approximately 4 feet thick.

A full height stair turret is corbelled from above ground level at the re-entrant angle. There are two ground floor entrances leading to cellars, both round-arched with checked-back jambs; the entrance to the main block is vaulted. There is no access from the ground to the first floor. An external forestair with a concrete parapet leads to a modern square-headed doorway that was created from a window in the south wall. The internal arrangements have been altered over time.

The first floor features a roll-moulded window in the jamb, while the other windows have been enlarged in the 20th century with concrete jambs. At the northwest angle of the main block, there are cut-back remains of corbelling from the angle turret. The roofs are slate, and the wallhead features corniced stacks.
