Description
Carronbridge Sawmill is a mid-19th century estate sawmill, likely designed by architect Charles Howitt of the Drumlanrig estate. The sawmill is still in operation and features a detached small office to the south. It is constructed from stugged and squared pink rubble with ashlar dressings, and includes some timber walling at the north and east ends, which features a gabled wheelhouse.
The sawmill consists of three principal units that are asymmetrically arranged. The taller inner range, which includes a loft, has a ground floor bipartite window on the west gable and a loft door with a hoist. There is an open store located below the east gable. The parallel adjoining north wing has an advanced gable on the west elevation and large timber gates to the north. The two-bay south wing is set transversely, forming a T-plan, and features an open lean-to on stone piers in the eastern re-entrant angle, along with a door and cartway on the south gable.
Inside, much of the original gearing remains, particularly at the upper levels. The office has a rectangular plan with a door and window on the west gable, and a bronze bell mounted above the gable head on a wrought-iron frame, along with a single north-facing window. The building features small-paned glazing throughout and shaped skews with moulded skewputts, all covered with graded slates.
