Description

Park Farmhouse is a late 18th century, long two-storey farmhouse located on Park Road in Dumfries. The building features two unusually deep full-height near circular bows on the northern elevation, which flank an asymmetrical entrance bay. The fourth bay on the east side is likely an addition. The exterior is pebble-dashed with rendered margins and includes a shallow porch. The bows have tripartite windows, straight skews, and end stacks, with a slate roof that curves over the bows. Additionally, there is a large lean-to porch on the southern side, facing the courtyard.
